I normally write about practical and relevant issues, and it's getting harder and harder for me to do that without stepping on some NDA here or there.

MIFs vs Bilaterals - The Good The Bad or The Ugly?

The regulatory position on interchange fees in Europe over the last 5/10 years has shifted significantly.
