4. What is FinScopeTM? FinScopeTM, a FinMark Trust initiative, is a nationally representative study of consumers' perceptions on financial services and issues, which creates insight to how consumers source their income and manage their financial lives. The sample covers the entire adult population, rich and poor, urban and rural, in order to create a segmentation, or continuum, of the entire market and to lend perspective to the various market segments. Focuses attention on the issues that prevent consumers form being able to access financial services physical access, affordability issues, documentary constraints etc. Focuses attention on the issues that prevent consumers form being able to access financial services physical access, affordability issues, documentary constraints etc.

Supply side perspective needed to complete the picture
it maps the supply of finance by institutional type
it identifies the scope and scale of accessible supply
it looks for gaps in the platform for accessible supply
it looks also for obstacles to expanded accessible supply
and it recommends practical options for improvement
12. . . . at Kw 60,000 a month to run the average bank account is far too expensive for mass rural use . . . Striking point is that six out of the ten middle decile rural households have the same income level and it is barely enough to guarantee food security for a typical family of five (food security level was roughly an average Kwacha 100,000 per family member (which is broadly $1 per day). Note also that about a quarter of rural household income is non-cash so typical bank charges would take up to 15% of cash income. This is not the same as saying that individuals pay this much but if they used an account to hold income, draw it steadily to spend it and pay a couple of bills then you get the 10/15% figures quoted above. Even the two, maybe, three banks that offer cheaper accounts would still be taking 7%+ of most rural households cash income.

13. Lower priced accounts might open up banking to the top 40% of urban households
14. A few commercial banks have the potential to position themselves to do more mass-market business
15. About half of the poorer, less densely populated districts have no financial institution outlet at all Crosses denote districts with no financial services outletCrosses denote districts with no financial services outlet
17. The deposit to GDP ratio has probably just about reached 20% and new funds mobilised equal about 5% of GDP . . .
18. . . . and more of banks interest-bearing liabilities are at last turning into earning assets and lending is growing fast . . . Rise in interest-bearing liabilities in four years is Kw 5.4 trillion but income earning assets up only Kw 4.2 trillion where has the extra Kw 1.2 trillion gone?Rise in interest-bearing liabilities in four years is Kw 5.4 trillion but income earning assets up only Kw 4.2 trillion where has the extra Kw 1.2 trillion gone?
19. . . . and the spread taken on deposits is slowly balancing up with that on loans as government security yields fall . . . Changed from 10½% and 6½% in 2006Changed from 10½% and 6½% in 2006
20. . . . and all this is driving up net income from lending but net income from DEPOSITS still dominates markedly

27. Policy intervention in pursuit of enhanced market characteristics
28. Possible structure of inclusion policy So what does an access policy look like?
Firstly, there need to be a vision ideally one that sets credible and achievable targets.
Secondly, there needs to be a statement of guiding principles that define governments relationship with the financial system. In many ways this is the most complex area it will be an amalgamation of (i) political principles (ii) what is practically achievable (iii) what has worked elsewhere (iv) capacity constraints (v) the gravity of the need
Thirdly, goals enhanced market characteristics
Fourthly, specific policy objectives So what does an access policy look like?
