The Nordic countries constitute the most advanced and digitally ready payment market in Europe, and one of the most advanced in the world[1].

When I concluded my final project report for the Warwick Business School Executive MBA last year, one of the summary points was that financial services regulators would soon need to start looking at ‘technology as law’ and would need to write laws and policies to govern this change.

Anthony Walton CEO at Iliad Solutions
Nobody should rejoice in the problems faced by TSB in its migration to the Sabadell system. TSB’s customer base has suffered, the bank’s reputation has been hammered and, inevitably, fraudsters have taken advantage of the situation.
