While market dynamics and financial infrastructure vary greatly by country and region, it is clear that changes across financial markets have 2 commonalities: digitization and cashlessness.

But what are the main driving influences on this journey to grow our financial ecosystems? The answer: the integration and standardization of financial infrastructures as well as the advancement (in terms of availability and popularity) of new digital services such as QR code-based digital payments. This growth has put us on a path toward unified and integrated financial offerings that are available to all on a countrywide, regionwide and even worldwide level.
