I am wondering on the origins of "market trust" and its relation to innovation. Why do some organizations create and more importantly, sustain their market trust and credibility? More specifically, I am wondering which of these factors drives “market trust” the most, why and how From "being there" for decades and having served...

A clutch of recent news stories makes all too clear the opportunities and the challenges of the mobile payments revolution.

Recently I've been discussing with bankers, economists, strategists and futurists the future of the banking industry.

Of the three models that I described in my last blog – credits by invoice extension, virtual credit cards by application, and virtual credit cards by NFC – which would benefit banks most?
