New technologies – new models – new limits
Digital models are fundamentally different in a number of ways:
1. Free (to someone) transactions allows smaller size, higher frequency, over greater distance
2. Inherently data rich– allows geo-spatial mapping, transactional mining, social network analysis
3. Real-time communications interface – allows self-service account information, reminders
4. Real-time control interface – even self-activation
What should we build with this? What is the vision for what we want to achieve for clients?

Access to M-PESA generates significant welfare effects through enabling informal financial relationships
Source: 1) Suri and Jack (2011) Risk sharing and transaction costs, Working Paper 2) Using regression techniques, the researchers perform several tests to rule out
alternative explanations (like higher income) which are correlated with M-PESA usage
M-PESA facilitates increased risk-sharing among networks of friends and family. Following a major shock, M-PESA users are more likely than non-users to: ▪ Receive a remittance; ▪ Receive a larger amount of
transfers;
▪ Receive funds from a larger network of senders; and
▪ Receive funds from senders who are located further away
Evidence from a 2,100 household panel survey in Kenya:1
▪ M-PESA users are able to fully absorb large negative income shocks (such as severe illness, job loss, livestock death, harvest or business failure) without any reduction in household consumption. In contrast, household consumption falls on average 6-10 percent in response to a major shock when households don’t have an M-PESA user2

Impact evaluations of mobile are inherently difficult for a few reasons § Inherent challenge of evaluating a network
technology: • Scale modifies impact – “network affect” • Sub-scale often implies sub-par (e.g. agent network)
§ Large scale commercial operators un-cooperative
§ Mobile vs. Chanel vs. Product § Many uses and use cases means hard to know
where to look
