Payments System Modernization: An Update From The Canadian Payments Association
Countries around the globe continue to examine and enhance their national payments systems in order to better service the needs of users (i.e. Government, Corporates, SMEs, and Consumers). Canada, led by the Canadian Payments Association, has recently undertaken an extensive outreach initiative to better understand the gaps and opportunities that exist within Canada’s payments ecosystem.
The CPA leveraging these findings along with the CPA’s global environmental scan of payments systems; research of “core” payments system attributes and their associated trade-offs; and feedback from CPA members and the Stakeholder Advisory Council will define a roadmap for modernizing the CPA’s national payments system. This multi-year, multi-phase program has only recently begun but will affect change in the ecosystem to better meet the emerging needs of its participants and users.
Keynote Speaker:
Doug Kreviazuk
