Taking The Pulse Of U.S. Cross-Border Payments: Lessons For A Year Of Change

Over the past week, the payments industry hosted two major events in the U.S. that together provide the most significant opportunity to measure the pulse of cross-border payments in the country this year.

The first, Money20/20, is a vast, commercial event held in Las Vegas, where thousands of delegates from across fintech, payments and beyond meet to network and discuss the latest trends. However the second, Economics of Payments XII, is a highly select meeting of academics that is hosted by one of the world’s central banks each year, and this year was held at the U.S. Federal Reserve in Washington DC.
