| Summary: | Consumer lending means doing business with individuals, from various age groups and
income stratum, satisfying their financial needs through the provision of financial
products and services.
The developments of the consumer loan industry have been influenced by changes in
the market structure, competitive behaviour and technological advancements. Above
all, banks have realised that the changes in the economic, social and demographic
environments have created new financial demands that need to be met. The consumer
loan industry in Singapore has grown rapidly and undergone many changes in recent
years. Competition is highly visible. It is thus appropriate to undertake a review of
the consumer loan industry to examine the developing future trends in this market.
The study can be basically divided into 3 main categories. The frrst section looks into
the development of the consumer loan industry from the 1970s to the 1990s. The
second section examines the forces of change that give rise to the present plethora of
the consumer loan industry and takes a look at current consumer thinking in loans.
Lastly, the study attempts to highlight the future trends in the consumer loan industry. |
