  7. Expanding access to finance requires solid financial infrastructure • Creating and improving financial infrastructure • Credit bureaus, payment systems and collateral registries • Legal and regulatory framework • Working with financial institutions • Retail/SME banks, microfinance, housing, leasing • Comprehensive, long-term institution building programs • Working with securities markets • Corporate and government bond markets Market Infrastructure MFI Bank A Bank B

  10. Financial Infrastructure helps reduce transaction costs $30 $25 $20 90% $15 Cost per $100 lent or sent 75% $10 80% $5 90% $0 Retail/small business loans that can make use of credit bureaus Loans securitized with moveable collateral Remittances Domestic Payments Most efficient system Total potential reduction in costs Least efficient system Notes: “Total potential reduction in costs” is indicative of the broad range of potential cost reduction. Actual cost savings realized is contingent ultimately on the efficiency of the system. Credit Bureaus: Lending costs on micro, retail and small business loans. Upper limit is for MFI loans, and is based on average of “Operating costs as a % of loan portfolio” information obtained from 2006 MIX Market data for 798 MFIs in 96 countries. Collateral Registries: Lending costs on secured credit and leases. Remittances: Cost of sending remittances to remitter’s home country. Domestic payments: Cost of sending payments in country. Financial Infrastructure has long-term systemic potential to reduce cost per dollar lent or sent

  11. The World Bank Group is developing a Financial Infrastructure Index (FII) The Financial Infrastructure Index: • Provides a basis for cross-country comparison of FI elements for which consistent cross country data is available • Builds on an FI index being developed by the OECD • Measures strength of FI using indicators for four broad areas: • Contract Enforcement – as a proxy for enforcement of creditor rights in case of non-payment • Access to Credit - measures availability and scope of credit information and the degree to which collateral and bankruptcy laws protect the rights of borrowers and lenders • Investor Protection - measures extent of disclosure, director liability and the extent to which shareholders can challenge transactions, including minority shareholder rights. Proxy for corporate governance • Bankruptcy Procedures – reflects time, cost and outcomes of bankruptcy proceedings • As more data become available, the index will be expanded to include other aspects of financial infrastructure such as payment systems, the status of auditing and accounting and securities market infrastructure.

  16. What should policy makers do? • Pursue sound financial sector and macroeconomic policies • Establish an appropriate legal and regulatory framework • Develop institutional capacity for enforcement and oversight • Address competition policy issues, maintaining a balance with cooperation • Identify clear roles for public and private sectors • Extend financial infrastructure to target populations such as low-income, SME or rural consumers • Develop multi-sector strategies or solutions to address the problem of access • Prioritize development objectives of FI • Promote financial education and financial literacy

  17. World Bank Group Support to Financial Infrastructure Development • Explore synergies among individual programs in countries/regions (see next slide) • Strenghten/broaden standard setting efforts (e.g. credit reporting) • Working on common terminology/approaches • Push the Research agenda • Conduct “Financial Sector Assessment Program” (FIAP) within the context of FSAPs and beyond • Prepare joint TA and Loan/Grants programs
