Cashless Society of Sweden Driving Cards and Payments Industry: Ken Research

Ken Research has announced recent publication titled “The Cards and Payments Industry in Sweden: Emerging Trends and Opportunities to 2021” which discuss detailed analysis of the industry and forecast. Report discuss various payment card markets operating in the industry, and provides detailed information on the number of cards in circulation, and transaction values and volumes during the review period and over the forecast period (2017-2021). It also offers information on the country's competitive landscape, including the market shares of issuers and schemes. It also discusses major government regulations pertaining to cards and payments industry and marketing strategies used by various banks and other institutions.



Sweden is dubbed as the most cash free society in the world with over 80% percent of transactions without the physical exchange of money. This drive to a cashless society has been supported by the UN Capital Development Fund’s Better Than Cash Alliance  funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, MasterCard and Visa among others.  The Swedish has made most of this given support . Most of the people are vouching for the cash free society with the slight exception of the elderly who are finding it ..difficult to adjust to the rapid change in the payment methods. Also certain vendors are cringing about the transaction cost associated with online payments. Many banks in Sweden do not have cash. About 900 banks of the 1600 banks neither keep cash nor accept it.  The shopkeepers donot want it ,the people don’t carry it. The retailers are legally entitled to refuse notes and coins.  It is impossible to buy tickets on the Swedish buses and Stockholm metro with cash.
According to Riksbank, cash transaction accounted to only 2% of value of all payments last year and is estimated to drop by .50% by 2020.  Cards are the payment methods used the most by the people, with an average of 207 transactions per card per year. This is followed by payments through many other phone wallets , swish being the popular one.  With the introduction of iZellet , a cheap and easy system designed to take card payments via a mini app and a small card reader has helped the small traders , street vendors to adopt to cash less transactions.
The success of Sweden in adoption of cashless society lies in the fact that the people there were digitally ready. The proliferation of mobile phones and internet connections in Sweden is among the highest in the world, making it easier to adopt new electronic payment systems. The banks became digitized much earlier than rest of the countries
94% of Swedish are connected to the internet. The ecommerce market in Sweden is blooming. More and more household have been shifting towards online shopping. The e commerce market is currently about 6 billion Euros. The major products being sold is electronics, books, clothing and footwear. The e commerce accounts for about 6% of the total retail sales. The most preferred payment method is via invoice followed by personal bank accounts. However, recently the paymet via yhe credit card is showing the biggest growth.
In 2016, Swedish banks expanded Swish, known as a extensively used mobile app for online transactions. This app was previously focused for peer-to-peer (P2P) and in-store payments. This app, Swish is owned by six Swedish banks including Danske Bank, Handelsbanken, Lansforsakringar Bank, Nordea, SEB and Swedbank. Swish has grown in popularity since its launch, with 4.9 million users in Sweden as of November 2016. In May 2016, USD 892.3 million (SEK7.5 billion) worth of transactions were performed using Swish, rising to USD 994.3 million (SEK8.4 billion) in November 2016.
Contactless technology is still at a nascent stage of development in Sweden, with only a handful of banks-such as ICA Banken and Danske Bank-offering contactless cards. The number of contactless cards increased threefold from 439,707 in 2015 to 1.5 million in 2016, and is anticipated to reach 15.0 million by 2021. With a rising number of small businesses and street vendors accepting payment cards for small-value transactions, the introduction of contactless technology is expected to drive payment card transaction volumes over the forecast period.

Italian Life Insurance is Moderately Concentrated with Top 10 Leading Players: Ken Research

Ken Research has introduced latest project titled, "Life Insurance in Italy, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2020". Report provides key performance indicators such as written premium, incurred loss, loss ratio, commissions and expenses, total assets, total investment income and retentions during the revaluation period i.e. 2011-15 and forecast period 2015-2020. The report also analyses allotment channels operating in the sector, gives a wide-ranging indication of the Italian economy and demographics, and provides comprehensive information on the cut-throat landscape in the country. At last, replicating and investigation expertise, giving insurers access to information on subdivision dynamics and spirited compensation, and profiles of insurers operating in the country. The report closely examines insurance regulations, recent changes in the regulatory structure and its impact on Italy's overall growth.
global-insurance-sector
Italy’s insurance market remained upbeat in first half precisely, 2010-15 and is well placed to continue to grow in the coming five years primarily driven by stipulate for life products. Italy saw a second uninterrupted year of double-digit development in gross written premium (GWP) came despite economic surroundings, although the Italian government is seen taking steps to gradually develop and stimulate productivity. Driven by demand for life insurance, low interest rates discouraged investors away from conventional products such as bank deposits and investment funds and towards substitute savings solutions. In particular, according to the insurance trade association, the Associazione Nazionale fra le Imprese Assicuratrici (ANIA), new products derived from the combination of segregated funds and unit-linked investment funds gained momentum.
Key market players include-
  • Poste Vita
  • Intesa Sanpaolo
  • Genertel life
  • Generali
  • Fideuram Vita
The global financial crisis of 2008 destroyed Italy’s economy. It has been struggling since with GDP contraction in five out of the seven fiscal years. Political instability, high debt and a large shadow economy are contributing to the slow recovery. Furthermore, low labour productivity, which is significantly below most of the major economies in the Organization for Economic Co-operation. Amongst the life insurance market of Italy, long-term life insurance is the biggest segments in 2014. In light of the low returns offered by fixed-income instruments, investors and Italian families divested their savings from Italian government and corporate bonds. While the Italian insurance sector has committed more than a third of investments into equities, two of the largest competitors, Allianz S.p.A. and Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A, tend to have more conservative portfolios as compared to outside of Italy.
The Italian insurance sector has seen some merger and acquisition (M&A) activity in recent years, increasingly involving overseas market participants out of which 69 were of life insurers. Since 2012, M&A transactions within the Italian market have included the integration of the Unipol and Premafin/Fondiaria-Sai groups. Unipol Assicurazioni, Milano Assicurazioni and Premafin later were merged into Fondiaria-Sai, which subsequently assumed the name UnipolSai Assicurazioni S.p.A and became operative in January 2014. The major challenges faced by the Italian insurance market are the uncertainty regarding regulatory developments taking place in the country. “D.d.l. Concorrenza”, which is currently being debated in the Italian parliament, aims to improve competition and transparency for customers, with a significant focus on the insurance industry. Total written premiums in 2015 rose considerably  
  • Italy is the third European life market by GWP, after UK and France
  • The Italian market remains dominated by traditional distribution channels, such as the bancassurance model
  • Insurance companies still invest mainly in Italian government bonds. Investments in corporate bonds have been increasing steadily in the last few years
  • The economic crisis led to rising unemployment and wage cuts during the review period. These factors are expected to negatively affect the growth of the life segment, as consumers with reduced disposable incomes are unlikely to invest in voluntary insurance products.

Reinsurance is Still in Infancy Stage in Italy: Ken Research

Ken Research has announced recent publication titled “Reinsurance in Italy, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2020”. This report analyses reinsurance growth and opportunities in the country covering competitive landscape, economy and demographic analysis and significance of natural and man-made hazards and their impact on the Italian insurance industry. It discusses major market segments and future outlook of the industry.



There is no active reinsurance market in Italy. Since 2008, the reinsurance has only been provided through international reinsurance firms by setting up branch offices in Italy. The major companies are Swiss Re, Munich Re, SCOR, Mapfre Re, RGA and General Re etc.
The average fertility rate is 1.37. The life expectancy of people is over 80 years. This means that the population in Italy is ageing rapidly and putting a pressure on the welfare system, pensions and moreover the supply for the younger generation to increase the tax revenue is decreasing.
Macroeconomic environment
The Italian industry is thrives on its manufacturing and service sector.  The services sector accounts for almost three quarters of total GDP and has 65% employment. The industry sector accounts for one fourth of GDP and 30% employment, the manufacturing sector is dominated by small and medium run enterprises run by families. The agriculture takes the smallest share in the economy of Italy.
BREXIT: London was the hub for the insurance market in Europe. Being a part of EU, the insurance business was relatively smooth between Italy and UK. It was that allowed UK Insurers establish branches in other Member States as well as Italian Insurers to open branches in UK under the so called “Home Country Control” system, meaning that the Home Country Supervisor had the exclusive responsibility for any regulatory and prudential supervision of the Insurer within the EU. But now, the UK not being a part of EU, their insurers and intermediaries will need to obtain new authorizations in order to offer cross-border services to Italian clients. The UK Insurers will use Articles 28 and 29 of the Italian Insurance Code (“IIC”) to obtain new authorization in order to carry out business under the right of establishment, according to the prohibition to carry on business under the freedom of services. The same will need to be done by the Italian counterparts. This would lead to several regulatory uncertainty in the already established contracts and hamper the establishment of future contracts.
The ageing population of Italy is putting a big pressure on the social security system of the government. Also, the debt ratio of the nation is widening, thus both these factors could lead to a fall in the income of the Italians and thus the investment in the insurance and reinsurance companies can fall significantly in the upcoming years. The acute low interest rate in Italy has affected the investment opportunities and can severely affect the insurance companies whose liabilities consist of a fixed investement return.
Key Highlights
  • The new regulations introduced in Italy on the authorization and operation of insurance and reinsurance brokers were issued by the Financial Supervisory Authority.
  • The European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) issued guidelines on the application of outwards reinsurance arrangements for non-life catastrophe risk.
  • In the absence of any compulsory insurance for natural disasters, the Italian government covers the majority of losses. However, the rising frequency of natural disasters is encouraging the government to make natural disaster cover compulsory for households.
  • Italians are persistently underinsured for disasters due to a lack of payments, as well as the length of time involved in making a claim in the occurrence of an earthquake.

  • Non-life insurance market research

Basic Outreach of the Plasterboard Market
Plasterboard, known by various names such as Drywall and wallboard is used to build inner walls and ceiling in inhabiting areas such as residents, offices etc. It is made from calcium sulphate dihydrate known commonly as gypsum with or without additives and normally pressed between a facer and a backer. Earlier, conventional methods of leather and plaster were used. In the United Kingdom, this revolution began in late 1930s.
asia-plasterboard-market
These are wooden boards or planks placed horizontally across the ceiling joints. With time, these wooden laths have been discontinued and have been replaced by rock lath, which is a type of gypsum wallboard, holed in a systematic manner. In addition to rock lath, there are various types of metal lath, which is categorized according to weight, type of ribbing, and whether the lath is galvanized. Metal lathing, attached by tie wires using lathers' nippers is a very effective and new way of working out. The innovation in this industry has come from that fact that lath and plaster have been mostly replaced with solid drywall or plasterboard  since it is quicker and less pricey to install, other uses being similar.
Australian plasterboard market leader, CSR Gyprock has launched a new Supaceil with Optimised Core technology. This optimised Core Technology would be a next step in the innovation of plasterboard industry. This improvement away from outdated usage is a revolutionary development enabling an advanced performance-to-weight ratio for plasterboard, which means a greater breaking strength can be achieved in a substantially lighter board as well as exceeding the performance requirements of general standards. by incorporating glass fibre to reinforce the core. Since its introduction, Supaceil has continued to set the standard when it comes to plasterboard. With the introduction of Supaceil glass fibre was mixed in plasterboard to reinforce the core. This technology, combined with the use of a stronger, thicker face paper, delivers considerable feat benefits. The new product greatly improved; is lighter making it easier to lift for better sheet manoeuvrability and improved flex; the face appearance is now more consistent so a more specialized finish can be achieved; score and snap has been significantly improved to allow for crisper edges and cleaner cuts and the board has been designed with glass fibre. The Gyproc plasterboard product range provides solutions for enhanced moisture, fire, acoustic, impact and thermal performance. These plasterboards can be used for a range of high performance applications in commercial, industrial and residential buildings, as well as the off-site sector. Improvement in this would be seen as increased versatility and performance. It would mean greater potency and survival. Companies like USG Boral are continually investing and innovating in sustainable methods.

Decelerating Beer Market Insights, Guatemala Report 2016: Ken Research

Ken research has announced recent research report titled, "Guatemala Beer Market Insights Report 2016 ". This influential research analysis surrounds the dynamics and structure of the Guatemala beer industry, from the latest cutthroat aptitude of both historical and anticipated trends to augment the corporate strategic planning for key players. Company has evaluated the current emerging trends and development break throughs for brand evolvement and advertising initiatives. To scrutinize domestic and imported beer brand performance analyst determines the key trends driving expenditure fondness to develop a competitive advantage. Finally, cross-examine the inimitable granularity of data to analyse the market on a range of stages to make well-informed pronouncement on future intimidation and enlargement prospects in the marketplace.
The tourism industry is quite vigorous in Guatemala. People are attracted to the beautiful paved streets, the magnificent central square enjoying the green lushes, enchanting music and liveliness of the city. Inexpensive and flavoured Beer is also a point of draw for the visitors. Gallo, 118 years old, is Guatemala’s most famed beer.
european-beer-industry
There has been an evident fall in beer consumption in Guatemala. This has been witnessed for the first time in comparison to other countries and has been affected by multiple factors. Strong beers above 5.5% Abv saw greater growth than the lower strength segments. AB InBev is the world’s one of the largest beer company and Brahva that they brew locally has emerged as a direct competitor to Gallo in recent years. These companies have been tied up in severe price war and therefore have reduced profits individually. Until few years ago, one could not find the other multinational brands in beer market in Guatemala. This has been another significant reason for the fall in beer consumption.
Hence, Guatemalans' preference towards hard liquor also contributed to the drop in beer volume.  Guatemala's falling beer consumption is mainly attributed to the recent El Nino. This has disrupted the normal lifestyle of the locals. Not that it is just confined to adversely affecting them, it has bought along with it major droughts where people fight for basic subsistence. It has misbalanced the weather patterns forming a chain reaction of undesirable events. Another major reason surfaced was the political disorder, which has again hindered with public consumption patterns. The low investment in domestic growth has altered the growth patters and hence there disposable incomes. Guatemala is strategically important to Mexico and El Salvador for beer export. However, the import demand from these countries has seen a major setback in 2016.
The price war that had affected the competition between leading companies Cervecería Centroamericana SA (CCA) and AmBev Centroamérica SA (AmBev) is over now. The average unit price of beer has been lowered so much that consumers now buy beer based on their taste preference rather than on the lowest unit price. CCA has a firm monopoly in beer industry due to first mover advantage and a well-established market since 1887. Mexico continues to be the main country importing beer to Guatemala. All these have lowered Guatemala's beer consumption as of 2016.

Uplifting Demand for Beer in Nicaraguan Driving Alcoholic Beverage Market: Ken Research

Ken research has introduced recent research report on, "Nicaragua Beer Market Insights Report 2016". During the study, we analyse various consumer advantages, major market players, leading industries, structure, various cooperative strategic planning issues, historical and emerging insights, brand development and basic evolution of beer industry in 2016. Report scrutinize the volume versus value trends to pin point the various epicentres that lead this balling industry across super-premium, premium, mainstream and discount segments to analyse its basic augmentation. Competitor industry has been active and feral. The country withstands competitive advantage for beer market and therefore we develop the regressive strategies to differentiate domestic and imported beer brand performances. Key thrusting techniques are put under the magnifying glass.
Nicaraguan economy saw a boost in growth in 2016 especially in the first half of the year. The gross domestic product per capita has been successfully expanding and hence, the disposable income of natives. Consumption demand and expenditure has reached an upward trajectory. The investments on public infrastructure and necessities have been pushed for the best. All these factors have given the locals the chance to pamper themselves with higher personal budget. Decelerating Inflation pressures along the year add to the bliss. The direct connection of this is seen from the consumer behaviours expenditure in beer market. Beer market saw an ever-increasing demand and therefore higher profits.  Though the country has been popular for the delicious rum, new microbreweries have been popping in ever hook and corner of their Central American economy.
The increasing beer demand is compassed via-
  • The positive economic boom (in various economic propagandas) witnessed by the flourishing economy by end of 2016
  • Climate change-The favourable warm Pacific climate
  • Changing consumer behavioural patterns in drinks that is moving towards urbane beverages.


Warm weather and chilled beer have always been best compliments that one looks for. Added to these is the beautiful scenic beauty of the magnificent Nicaraguan beaches. The extremely hot and dry climate has increased the demand of beer all over the country. The climate has major influence on beer producers. Extreme drought conditions can leave the supply of beer being inadequate and demand shooting up many notches. The relationship between an increase in income and beer consumption has been non-linear but positive. Hotter conditions have hampered the production of wine and hence majority of population in many beer consuming nations have to resort to beer as an alcoholic beverage substitute, which is made from barley which can withstand insensitive climatic conditions. People have been seen to develop interests in segment such as "superpremium beer", which grew because of the growing erudition of Nicaraguan consumers.
The leading brands of beer in Nicaragua comprise of
  Tona
This is a traditional beer of the country. It has been associated with the local customs and traditions of the country. This lager is sold in aluminium can and disposable bottles. The company was established in 1977, underwent a merger, and was relaunched soon after in 1996. It has soothing taste and a perfect blend of zest. It circumcises the atmosphere of the country in one can. It is said to posses a smell of honey and has been ranging in demand
 Victoria
This pilsen was first introduced in 1942 is one of the oldest and most popular beer of the country. It is sold in aluminium cans, returnable bottles and kegs. Its lighter version known as Victoria Light was launched in 2004. Another type is Victoria frost, which is processed through micro filtration. Victoria Selección Maestro is the first dark brew, which is the newest launch of 2011 with high alcoholic content.
  Premium
Premium is a lager introduced in 1999 and aimed at consumers who prefers imported brands.
The first two companies dominate the beer market of this country. Both are extremely light beers and have minimal taste difference. Their taste is best experienced when serves chilled and hence they are a popular pull of the country. CabCorb (CBC) entered the market for the first time in 2015, gained share and became the third leading brewer in its first year. Victoria and Tona remained the foremost brands; this has remained consistent over the years and is unlikely to change in future. Compañía Cervecera de Nicaragua (CCN) is a Nicaraguan brewery based in Managua, Nicaragua. In 1996, CCN merged with its competitor, the Industrial Cervecera, S.A. (ICSA), to form the largest brewery. In 2003, CCN began exporting the Cerveza Toña brand to the U.S. market. However due to the fall in demand from other central american economies such at guatemala, the imports from Nacargua have been declining. This is mainly due to El nino effect, political disorders and falling economy. CCN later acquired the local water bottling company to expand its business to juices and flavoured non-carbonated sports drinks.
This industry has spots of innovation, involvement and betterment. With current trends emanating, beer market will flourish in years to come and help Nicaragua achieve higher growth.

Current developments in Telemedicine Initiatives in Africa - Success and Failure Case Studies: Ken Research

The report titled “Africa Telemedicine Outlook and Opportunities” provides detailed overview on the e-Health Space in Africa and helps readers to identify the ongoing trends in the industry and anticipated growth in future depending upon changing industry dynamics in coming years. The report is useful for investors, health institutions, health management organizations, startups, and other stakeholders to align their market centric strategies according to ongoing and expected trends in the future.
The Government has been playing supportive in implementing the e-health policies in all the countries across Africa. The same could be advocated from the fact that large number of National e-Health Policies such as RAFT, m4RH and others has been initiated by the government. Rising level of mobile and internet penetration and increasing number of awareness programs run by the government and NGOs is further assisting in improving the healthcare scenario in Africa with the help of telemedicine.
telemedicine-industry
However, this has not helped much in providing a positive impetus to the growth of eHealth sector in the country. The main reasons for the same are lack of proper infrastructure pertaining to ICT, problem of collating data through several platforms due to lack of uniformity , incomplete health records from the lowest level of health facilities, lack of technical staff for supporting the eHealth initiatives, lack of training centers  dedicated for eHealth, shortage of reliable power supply, lack of proper governance structure  in most of the countries and lack of interoperability of eHealth standards and systems.
Albeit the challenges, the continent had witnessed number of success case studies in the region, for an instance in Uganda, the use of mTrac has been a motivation for growth of e-health space in the country.
Uganda is one of the least developed countries in the world. The country has around 20 pathologists which work in key regional referral hospitals. For improving the healthcare situations in the country, government is continually making efforts towards improvisation of telemedicine. mTrac has been one successful project in telemedicine industry in Uganda which is a scalable solution to the challenge with health service delivery. mTrac would work on any mobile platform, broadening the process of data collection by leveraging SMS to simplify the process of reporting through a series of keyword codes and fields.
One of the innovative aspects of the mTrac platform is its dashboard which can effectively and efficiently collate and analyze all the data and help the district health workers to provide output optimally according to the needs of various stakeholders.
According to an industry veteran “the project had an engagement of national level stakeholders which has improved training and supervision, increased use of data for program monitoring and clarified data sources for indicators. It has also refined procedures for data validation, quality and reporting compliance, technical and steering committee activities, discussion and consensus building on methodologies, data requirements and interpretation, and engagement of telecommunication service providers.”
