Evolution of Payment and Banking
Interview with Banking on Information with Rutger van Faassen
Beginning
20 years ago, global commerce and digital payments expanded, and required guidance on a new challenge: effectively managing relationships with banks and payment providers.
The questions shiftedโclients wanted to know the safest, most efficient ways to handle their funds across borders.
The results of banking decisions were confusing and incoherent: one provider might facilitate a transaction seamlessly, while another could flag the same transaction as risky. This experience highlighted a need for better understanding of banking and payments and sparked the mission to uncover the underlying "whys" that shape each institutionโs approach to handling transactions.
Today
Today, I run an independent payment and banking consultancy, which works with clients across various industries to develop robust banking and payment strategies. Payment and banking today address essential elements of various business operations, including marketing, profitability, risk, technology, integration, and growth potential, which need to be dealt with.
Future
Technological advancements will likely drive many changes in the payment industry, but global regulatory standards will remain inconsistent. Different countries will maintain unique rules, requiring businesses to carefully manage these variations to avoid regulatory challenges. Banks and payment providers will continue to evaluate transactions according to their specific criteria, creating both opportunities and risks in international operations.
As banking and payment operations grow in importance, many businesses will recognize these functions as distinct from traditional finance. Todayโs payment methods require expertise in various fields such as UX, banking, compliance, and technology that go beyond typical finance or investment concerns.
