The SEA Opportunity
==> picture [28 x 28] intentionally omitted <==
Just over a decade ago, 80% of people living in South East Asia (SEA) had limited access to the Internet. Today, there are 360 million Internet users in the region and 90% of them connect to the Internet primarily through their mobile phones .
==> picture [28 x 28] intentionally omitted <==
The adoption of Digital Payments in SEA has finally reached the inflection point and is expected to cross US$1 trillion by 2025 , accounting for almost one in every two dollars spent in the region. Credit cards and ATM’s are on a sharp decline as e-money surges to more than 50% of all payment volumes .

Internet penetration and adoption in SEA is driving unprecedented changes in consumer behaviour. “ In 2019, SEA’s Internet economy hit US$100 billion - more than tripling in size over the previous four years. By 2025, the Internet economy is expected to triple again and hit US$300 billion .
==> picture [28 x 28] intentionally omitted <==
Almost 300 million of the adult population in SEA are underbanked or unbanked with limited options for credit.

SEA BNPL opportunity
==> picture [63 x 57] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [28 x 27] intentionally omitted <==
The “Sweet Spot” for BNPL is larger in SEA due to the lack of consumer credit and underbanked populations overlaid with mobile penetration levels and the ever increasing growth in e-payments which facilitate BNPL offerings and adoption rates.
==> picture [27 x 27] intentionally omitted <==
Peak Credit Cards has passed – Digital adoption has taken over.
==> picture [28 x 27] intentionally omitted <==
Based on BNM data* for 2019, the total transaction value for e-commerce & retail in Malaysia is up to RM1,432 billion (AU$477bil) 15% e-commerce & 85% in-store retail.
Assuming a BNPL adoption of 10% of market:
• 10% x RM1,432 billion
= RM143.2 billion (AUD47.73b)
