Abstract
Significant population segments in developing countries have very limited access to basic financial services, such as bank accounts, savings or insurance. Meanwhile, the use of ICT is increasingly becoming an intrinsic part of banking business, rendering financial services easier and cheaper to develop and deliver. This paper focuses on ICT-based correspondent banking outlets, a technology that appeared in Brazil in recent years, which is considered a feasible alternative for delivering financial services to the poor. The aim of this paper is to investigate how the use of this particular technology was structured and how it has evolved over time to deliver an increasingly complex range of services. A conceptual model, combining three theoretical approaches, is proposed to make possible an original reading of the use of correspondent banking technology in Brazil and its implications for microfinance.
 
Dans les pays en voie de développement, une portion importante de la population n’a qu’un accès limité aux services financiers de base, tels que compte bancaire, épargne ou assurance. Au même moment, les technologies de l'information et de la communication (TIC) sont devenues indissociables des activités bancaires. Elles facilitent le développement et la livraison de services financiers à moindres coûts. Cet article traite du « correspondent banking », phénomène récent au Brésil, en tant qu’alternative applicable pour fournir des services financiers aux pauvres. Le but de cet article est d'étudier la structure d'utilisation de cette technologie particulière et sa façon d’évoluer pour offrir une gamme de services de plus en plus élaborée. Le modèle conceptuel proposé conjugue trois approches théoriques qui permettent une lecture originale de l'utilisation du « correspondent banking » au Brésil et de ses implications pour la microfinance.
