Remittances grew from $49.6 billion in 2009 to $55 billion in 2010
Vincent Browne, Chairman and CEO of Flint Telecom Group, commented, "This will be another major milestone for us in early 2011 and was a key consideration in acquiring Ingedigit and Power2Process in October. India is one of the main emerging markets in the global economy and is clearly a highly attractive market for remittances and mobile financial services where currently less than 1% of the population use these types of services. Many leading analysts expect this number to increase to over 10% or 120 million users by 2015, accounting for approximately 8 billion transactions a year."
Mr. Browne added, "The banking relationships are the critical success factor in the India market and Mr. Najeeb and the team in India and here in the U.S. have done a truly remarkable job in developing such strong banking relationships over the past few years. This is a significant competitive advantage. IISS and its banking partners will offer services both within India and to the millions of Non Resident Indians overseas. IISS receives fees for every transaction carried out by users of the services. We expect IISS to attract significant numbers over the next few years due to the rapidly growing remittance and mobile money transfer segment in India and in conjunction with our banking clients that already have millions of customers that will want these services."
