PARALLEL
PAYMENT
PLATFORMS
WILL GROW
A parallel world of alternative ways to
pay – digital currencies and payment
platforms – will continue to grow,
co-existing alongside the established
order. Advances in the technology that
underpins this new world will mean
ever easier, swifter, safer and cheaper
ways for people to transfer funds –
friend to friend, bank to bank, country
to country. We anticipate a future
scenario where currency is a more fluid
concept – a current flowing through
multiple layers of payment platforms
and systems.
