  10. Zero to $1trillion in 28 years • Mobile industry only 28 years old • Fixed line moving to mobile • Internet moving to mobile • Media content moving to mobile Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013

  11. Let’s breakdown the 1.1trillion • 900bn service revenues • 625bn call revenue • 175bn mobile messaging • 100bn mobile data • 200bn for hardware • 160bn handsets • 40bn network infrastructure Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013

  12. SMS makes lots of money • Mobile messaging is broken down with • 120bn SMS • 35bn MMS Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013

  13. Mobile data is bigger than internet • 275bn data revenues means it’s bigger than internet related advertising, content and access fees (ie broadband and dial up) • 98bn from premium data (4x what’s paid for on internet) • 5bn from ringtones (2.5x what iTunes makes) Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013

  14. Average RPU is $13/month • Average phone user pays $13/month • $50/month in US • > $5/month in emerging countries • $1/month in Nigeria and Bangladesh (and companies still make money…) Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013

  15. Over 1 billion new handsets/year • 1.3bn new handsets a year • About 16% are smartphones Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013

  16. Mobile banking developed most in developing markets • Right were banking didn’t have vested interests in established practices (leapfrog) • WAP experiments in 90s not go anywhere • Czech Republic and S Africa – SMS alert when money being withdrawn from ATM – then nationally in Philippines • Phone wallets in Japan in early 2000s • Still developed catching up with developing Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013

  17. Virtual money greater in developing world too • Habbo hotel of Finland the oldest which predated Second Life and has 175mn users all under 15 and generates $75mn from premium SMS for in-game purchases • Forerunner of Farmville, etc Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013

  18. M-Pesa provides virtual <->real interface • Started in 2006 as banking for unbanked – now 58% use mobile banking • Deposit real money to account and w/draw or transfer to other m-pesa users via SMS • No more moving real money around where even $2/day wage was target for theft • Now represents around 25% of GPD Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013

  19. Every phone becomes payment terminal with mobile money • Swap money via SMS at market, shop, etc • The change has to come from operators – every phone can authorise payments and evey phone can receive payments Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013

  20. Virtual to real change • Buy credits in shop means shops (G-cash, M-Pesa, Smart Money, etc) can sell you airtime, etc which means they have too much cash • Let people withdraw money against airtime means cash goes out – solves problem (banking without banks) • South Korea – most advanced – has credit cards on sim card so can move/pay with phone and not need physical card Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013

  21. Mobile reduces crime • Already mentioned Africa and m-pesa means less crime as people don’t have cash • Works with machines too: parking meters all mobile in some countries – reduces crime against meters • Sweden now has mobile bus fares – and end of cash (reduce waste of metal, paper, etc) Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013

  22. Mobile applications reduce friction They make life easier Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013
