Future of payments 2022

For the virtual launch of OMFIF’s annual ‘Future of Payments’ report, the panel discussed the frictions involved in cross-border payments and the role that innovative technologies have to play in removing them. The panel explored both the technical and regulatory changes necessary to make payments quicker, safer, cheaper and more accessible. As the metaverse takes shape and digital currencies gain in notoriety, the panel examines whether these have the potential to improve cross-border payments, particularly for emerging markets where unreliable fiat currencies often make new solutions more attractive.
