Competing for consumer credit, how to fight the second half of the fucking financial war?

nowadays, in the three major financial fields of payment, consumer credit and investment, the figure of internet companies can no longer be ignored. Financial business is a "giant cash cake" that every big Internet traffic platform is eyeing, and among them, with its high cash efficiency, consumer loan business stands out and has become a unique trick for traffic giants in the financial battlefield in recent years.

On July 11, 2118, with the launch of today's headline "Relieved Loan" credit products, TMD (Headline, Didi and Meituan) have all laid out related financial businesses. They originally developed independently, and they all chose the consumer credit business as a trick to compete in the same field in the future. At this point, the TMD three families are reunited in the financial field.

The development of consumer finance business mainly involves three core elements: capital, risk control and scenarios. For Internet traffic giants, there are inherent obvious advantages in terms of funds and scenarios, but for the handling of risk control, two different modes of operation have been derived: self-operation or cooperation.

The giants have their own ways of playing: some platforms choose to operate their own financial business with a license; Some also choose to open the flow and cooperate with professional consumer finance platforms or licensed institutions.

it has to be mentioned that almost all the BATJ platforms (Baidu, Ali-Ant Financial, Tencent and JD.COM) that entered the market in the early days adopted the idea of self-operation, and started their business with licenses. Even Meituan, which has a relatively early financial business layout, got the license of micro-loan early and put the whole process of the whole product in its own system. At that time, the financial industry had not yet ushered in innovative ways of playing, and the licensed financial institutions could not accept the Internet's ways of playing, and they were not interested in micro-credit products.

however, in recent years, with the promotion of consumption upgrading, policy support and the development of financial technology, the demand for personal consumption credit is strong, and the credit scale of traditional financial institutions has increased year by year. At the same time, the scale of the Internet platform has grown rapidly and substantially. The operation mode of online credit has also undergone earth-shaking changes, and the cooperative operation mode has gradually become the mainstream.

whether it is "drip loan", "safe loan" newly launched in the headline or "good loan" in the early stage of Meituan, these products only provide support for customer acquisition, traffic and consumption scenarios, while the real credit business, including account opening, risk control, lending and collection, is completed by licensed financial institutions.

This way of cooperation, which does its own job, has made both parties taste the sweetness: for the Internet traffic platform, the cake of the retail financial industry is getting bigger and bigger, and the financial risks brought by the expansion of the self-operated system are greatly reduced; For traditional financial institutions, the flow of new customers is stronger.

in this mode of cooperation, both parties need what they want, and the division of labor is clear.

Early Internet giants also adjusted their postures.

According to 36Kr, recently, Ant Financial, which holds multiple licenses, began to open personal loans and small and micro-business loans from online merchant banks to financial institutions. Jingdong Finance and Du Xiaoman Finance (formerly Baidu Finance) have also fully turned to the role of "technical service providers" and no longer touch the financial side.

the alternative strategy of the late comers

It is an irreversible trend for traffic giants to get involved in credit business, and each company has great ambitions to lay out financial markets. The pioneers are Ali, Tencent, JD.COM and Baidu, and the latecomers are Meituan, Didi, Xiaomi, Vipshop and so on. According to the rich lab, at present, Momo is the only one of the top 21 Internet companies in China.

In addition to the different business management modes, the strategies and postures of big and small giants are also different. BAT and other giants not only laid out early in the financial field, but also expanded their fronts, occupying the three main battlefields of payment, loan and investment, but also extending their tentacles to the fields of securities, banking, credit reporting and crowdfunding, which can be described as all-round development.

Baidu relies on traffic extension, Tencent has social advantages, and Ali relies on long-tail users. While their financial products enhance the user experience, they are also constantly building closed-loop eco-financial systems and creating their own financial empire.

. However, the small TMD giants who arrive late must combine their own advantages, user attributes and consumption scenarios to enter the financial market, gain a foothold from the credit sector, and then slowly expand other financial sectors. After all, under the current situation of heavy license supervision, it is difficult to see new financial giants in the future.

Didi's attempt in financial business is a typical example of this strategy.

In p>2115, Didi cooperated with Dianrong.com, a P2P platform, and launched baby wealth management products with annualized income of 1.4%.

Zhongfu Finance Leasing Company was established in 2116 to enter the field of auto finance;

In August of the same year, Didi launched the auto finance products in stages;

In February 2117, Didi launched a credit product for drivers, with a quota of 3,111-5,111 yuan;

in April 2118, Didi launched the online credit product "Didi Loan" to provide credit services for Didi users.

At present, Didi has four licenses for payment, online small loan, financial leasing and commercial factoring, involving money fund, factoring, insurance, automobile financial leasing and consumer credit, which closely fits the travel scene and initially forms a financial ecology.

Another unicorn group, Meituan, laid out its financial business earlier.

meituan has a large number of users and cooperative merchants, and there are consumption scenarios, so it is logical and flexible to make consumer loans and micro-finance. For example, in the financial field of small and micro businesses, Meituan has unique advantages. As early as October, 2116, Meituan obtained a micro-loan license, relying on the comment platform to provide loan services to small and medium-sized micro-businesses among the 5 million catering businesses in the ecological circle, and to provide low-cost credit funds to small and medium-sized businesses continuously and steadily.

At present, Meituan Dianping has obtained five financial licenses for commercial factoring, payment, microfinance, private banking and insurance brokerage, and its business scope has also expanded from the credit field to wealth management, banking, insurance and other sectors. Although it is not as huge as BAT's financial ecosystem, it has become the "top card" in TMD.

from the perspective of consumers' basic necessities of life and daily entertainment consumption, TMD's three small giants have taken the lead in breaking through the credit business and gradually become rising stars in the field of internet finance. They have obvious advantages in traffic, business model and scene construction.

in the second half of the credit war, how did the three TMD companies fight?

According to statistics, by the end of 2117, there were 611 million active users and 411 million active users in today's headlines, and each user used it for 76 minutes every day. In 2117, Meituan had 311 million trading users and 4.4 million active businesses. In 2117, the number of users of Didi reached 451 million, and * * * provided 7.43 billion mobile travel services ...

Such a strong platform traffic is a good soil for credit and even financial business, but after TMD starts to lay out in the credit field, where should it go next?

how to better tap users' credit demand and guide users to use credit services is the next key task of the three platforms in the credit sector. For credit products, having a huge amount of user data is just winning at the starting line, but how to win at the end depends on how to know users and use data.

through the mining and understanding of massive data on the platform, we can understand consumers' consumption needs and living habits, better match users' credit needs, provide various value-added services including financial products, and even establish an accurate and personalized service system to bring users the best experience and benefits, so as to grasp the financial opportunities in the era of mobile internet-continuous capital flow and popularity.

In addition, the data can help to establish an efficient credit decision management system and improve the risk management level of the platform. After all, financial products, such as credit and wealth management, all have risk lag. Once the influence of fluctuation transmission is great, the breadth of product coverage is of course important, but the scale may be more important.

Lei Jun, the founder of Xiaomi Company, said: "In the future, all business giants will be Internet companies and financial companies." Today, headlines, Meituan and Didi just took a small step outside the financial field, and bigger and more violent actions will follow, so we will wait and see.
