Dublin, Aug. 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "France Remittance Market Outlook to 2027" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
France Remittance Market: Thriving in Digital Transformation and Cross-Border Transactions
The France Remittance Market is currently in a state of moderate concentration and growth, marked by the participation of formal and informal payment service providers, such as banks, money transfer operators (MTOs), mobile wallets, and postal networks.
The market's momentum is propelled by factors like escalating migration rates, governmental backing for new market entrants, improved financial literacy, and a growing preference for digitized remittance services. This growth has been evident in the consistent rise of transaction values, driven by both inbound and outbound remittances. Notably, the surge in outbound remittances, attributed to improved employment opportunities in the euro area, along with currency appreciation, has significantly contributed to this upward trajectory.
Driving Factors: Mobile Payments, Cross-Border Transactions, and Reduced Costs
The market's expansion is steered by the increasing adoption of mobile-based payment channels, facilitating cross-border transactions and reducing both time and cost associated with remittance transfers. Embracing digital remittance services is poised to diminish reliance on cash agents in both sending and receiving countries, thereby curbing the prevalence of high transaction fees.
Fintech Startups and Cost-Efficiency
The surge in fintech startups within the industry is expected to drive down the costs associated with fund transfers in the near future. This development is set to be further supported by heightened security checks and safety regulations, already underway, as exemplified by DBS Bank.
Key Trends by Market Segment
By Channel: The choice of a remittance channel hinges on factors such as accessibility for both payer and payee, cost considerations, the array of services offered, remittance amount, and more. Recent trends indicate that France's inbound remittances predominantly flow through banks. As of 2022 projections, banks dominate the inbound remittance landscape in terms of transaction volume, followed by MTOs, mobile wallets, and other channels including postal networks, credit unions, and informal channels.
By Point of Contact: The inbound remittance segment is largely led by branch pick-ups and mobile/online transactions, followed closely by prepaid cards in terms of remittance transaction volume.
Competitive Landscape
The French market showcases a moderate concentration of players, with MTOs and banks being the primary contenders. The market is influenced by five major MTOs, namely Western Union, MoneyGram, Ria Money Transfer, Transferwise, and UAE Exchange. Additionally, four major banks hold a significant presence, including HSBC Bank, Lloyds Bank, BNP Paribas, and Barclays PLC.
