Innovation in the retail banking industry is surely a oxymoron! Never noted for out-of-the-box thinking sleepy bankers have always been very keen to protect what they have and just take the money. Not anymore if EBA Day is to be believed. It's very refreshing that with SEPA finally on the home straight, bankers have been looking to alternative reve...

SEPA is going to get a firm date at last but where are the sanctions for countries who don't comply? I have said this many times before but rules without a penalty are not worth writing. It's of course the European way to be collaborative and well, just nice, but this is hardly a frightening prospect for great big hairy global bankers. However, le...

It seems that the biggest European banks find the time has come to establish an own card company. Can be a new card company successful against the duopoly of VISA and MaterCard, so that China wants to establish its own one? It's not easy to answer yes to that question at first sight. However note that the NCF (Near Field Communication) chip integr
