1、Global Payments 2020: Transformation and Convergence GLOBAL PAYMENTS 2020: TRANSFORMATION AND CONVERGENCE / 2 Global Payments 2020: Transformation and Convergence Foreword By Dominic Broom, Head of Sales and Relationship Management for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Treasury Services, BNY Mello
2、n The following pages conjure a vision of the payments landscape in 2020 and beyond. We believe that the world of payments is going to be fundamentally transformed between now and then. It will be reshaped by technology and redefined by regulation, the emergence of new economic powers, and changes i
3、n the global currency landscape. Most importantly, payments will be refocused from a commoditised proposition to a strategic, value-adding solution; one that is offered with greater focus on the broader commercial and transactional context within which a payment (or a transfer of value) takes place.
4、 Indeed, in 2020 a payment will be understood to be much more than just the settlement of a transaction or the mere movement of funds. The broader commercial, retail, investment or public sector environment of payments will be taken into account, and “payment-proximate” activities (such as investmen
5、t decisions, trade-related financing and risk mitigation, the cross-border movement of salaries and pensions and a host of other core activities) will become part of the basis upon which providers develop greater value propositions. The world of payments in 2020 will look very unlike it does today,
6、and market transformation has already begun. The competitive landscape will be redefined by the entry of non-traditional providers, the evolution of new solutions provided by financial institutions, and the development of strategic alliances that cross traditional sectoral boundaries. Besides transf
7、ormation, there will also be major convergence: convergence around products and solutions linked to payments; around technology platforms and clearing capabilities that will be increasingly global in nature and reach; around the operation of global securities and currency markets; and with regard to
8、 regulatory regimes that today are often fragmented and unaligned. Looking further forward, it is clear that any “end-state” post-2020 will be largely unrecognisable. That said, we envision it might have integrated global settlement and clearing systems, and platform-agnostic channels that allow for
9、 maximum client access, flexibility and convenience. Indeed, as a young, tech-savvy generation of business leaders emerges, the expectations of retail/consumer and commercial/ corporate end-clients with regard to payments are likely to be far more closely aligned than they are today. In all of this,
10、 commercial banks can remain key players, but only if they respond quickly enough and with compelling value propositions. In the following pages, we shall take stock of the state of play today, paint a picture of the future of payments, identify key developments already underway and examine what is
11、needed from market participants aspiring to bridge the gap between today and 2020.

13、VERGENCE / 3 Executive Summary The global payments landscape is in a state of fundamental transformation, comparable in significance to the advent of downloadable entertainment for the video rental business. Banks in particular will need to move swiftly if they are to take advantage of the opportuni
14、ties on offer in the global payments business, or risk losing out to nimbler competitors. The world of global payments in 2020 will look very unlike it does today; indeed its “end-state” post-2020 will be largely unrecognisable. Key factors influencing these changes will be the impact of technology,
15、 changing customer expectations (in particular those of retail customers), changing global demographics, shifts in global trade flows and currency markets, and the growing impact of regulation. The market is already being reshaped by both traditional and new types of payment providers. Conspicuous a
16、mongst these are new non-bank competitors, some of whom are already well established. For example, PayPal is servicing a fast-growing number of customers across the globe for payments, and is now also entering the lending market. The payments market in the developing world where traditional payment
17、infrastructure is lacking is more fragmented still, and shows examples of technological “leapfrogging”. Indeed, the fast take-up of new technology is enabling payment services to be provided to the unbanked, as demonstrated by the success of M-Pesa in Kenya, and its recent entry into the European ma
18、rkets. Large technology and social media companies such as Amazon, Google and Facebook are seeking entry into the payments market. At the same time, new electronic currencies such as Bitcoin offer payment options independent of government control. In an industry traditionally served by banks, these
19、new and innovative non- bank payment providers are entering the market and rapidly gaining ground. This development could easily accelerate to a tipping point if banks do not act sufficiently swiftly and decisively, positioning themselves to offer attractive, value- added propositions to both indivi
20、dual and corporate customers. In fact, a significant threat is posed by large technology and social media companies. If such firms can leverage, even monetise, their considerable customer reach by presenting attractive, straightforward and secure payment propositions alongside their other non-paymen
21、t offerings, they could succeed in disintermediating banks, particularly in growing segments of the global payments business. This is of particular relevance as a young, tech-savvy generation starts GLOBAL PAYMENTS 2020: TRANSFORMATION AND CONVERGENCE / 4 to take on leadership roles in global commer
22、ce. This new generation of leaders, all very familiar with the world of social media and e-commerce, will expect to run their businesses using 21st century tools. In addition to threats from social media and technology-based companies, banks also face growing competition from clearing and network so
23、lution providers, whose business models are reshaping global markets, changing the way multi-currency capabilities are delivered, and impacting the value proposition of traditional correspondent banking models. Regulation and compliance however necessary and well-intentioned can be perceived as a co
24、ncern, as the time and cost burden of meeting these requirements forces a deployment of resources away from the development of new client-facing products and solutions. Furthermore, internal bank dynamics, including the desire to retain familiar delivery options and relationship approaches, can be a
25、 serious threat to the ability of individual banks and the industry to respond effectively to transformational changes in the market. Some banks are already responding to these challenges. From the search for innovative strategic alliances and adaptation to the evolving expectations of importers and
26、 exporters, to the development of new propositions aimed at creating value around global remittance solutions, and translating regulatory requirements into a competitive advantage: all are examples of the ways in which banks at the forefront are responding to the new world of global payments. For ot
27、hers, it is time for a wake-up call. Banks havent always been the quickest off the mark when it comes to adaptation be it responding to changing customer expectations or adopting new technologies. But they must be perceptive and proactive if their payments businesses are to survive in the face of th
28、ese fundamental market transformations. What this entails will differ according to regions, markets and client segments, but one thing is clear: going forward, it will no longer be sufficient to regard payments as utility products; commoditised, undifferentiated and volume-driven. Instead, successfu
29、l payments providers, whether traditional or emerging, will be those: taking a strategic view of payments and “payment-proximate” activities, to devise and offer value-added solutions and products, identifying markets and lines of business where payments are a prominent aspect, updating their techno
30、logy to deliver services and solutions in line with customer expectations, as opposed to internal operational silos, actively targeting payment flows related to demographics, such as the compensation and pension flows linked to the baby boomer generation, or the emerging middle classes in China and
31、Indonesia, targeting high-growth and traditionally poorly served customer segments such as small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), exploring non-traditional alliances and partnership models, including strategic cross-sectoral partnerships with those they might not have considered previously (such
32、 as mobile or social network operators), to enable access to new client bases. The successful payments providers of 2020 and beyond will be those taking action today. Those that do not, risk being left behind. GLOBAL PAYMENTS 2020: TRANSFORMATION AND CONVERGENCE / 5 Payments Today REDEFINING PAYMENT
33、S: A STRATEGIC VIEW PAYMENTS ADD VALUE BY TAKING ACCOUNT OF “PAYMENT-PROXIMATE” ACTIVITIES Payments have historically been viewed as utility products; fundamentally transactional and tactical in nature, undifferentiated and volume-driven. In fact, a payment was often perceived as merely the final st
34、ep in a transaction, with limited opportunity to provide value-added services or solutions. However, payments as transfers of value can be decidedly more strategic when viewed in context of the broad scope of “payment-proximate” activities. Such activities provide a significant opportunity to add de
35、monstrable and differentiated value; be it in trade, investment, retail flows, the movement of salaries and pensions across borders, the settlement of government contract activity or a host of other such undertakings, some involving a high mass of low-value payments, others necessitating smaller vol
36、umes of higher-value payments. Trade flows perfectly illustrate the importance of “payment-proximate” activities and their link to value-added payment solutions. In trade finance, a provider can offer significant support in terms of financing and risk mitigation on either side of any payment. The ac
37、ceptance of an invoice by an importer, which creates an “approved payable”, can underpin financing options and may give rise to the need for complementary risk mitigation support. Certainly, significant opportunity exists around the transfer of value from one party to another. This is true in any ar
38、ea of activity where such a transfer a payment can be effected. In addition, the opportunity to link data and analytics to the flow of payments is frequently cited as a probable and attractive evolution of payment propositions, both for the benefit of parties involved in the transaction, and as a me
39、ans of meeting “Know Your Customer” (KYC) requirements linked to various regulatory regimes. That said, some industry specialists caution against linking to sensitive data that could inadvertently become known to third-party providers. Ultimately, a payment in 2020 will be about transferring value a
40、nd providing strategically-important solutions in support of broader activity in areas including trade, investment, retail, commercial and public sectors. STATE OF THE MARKET Whether measured by value or volume, the global payments business is vast and will continue to expand between now and 2020. H
41、owever, a number of factors and trends some already having an impact will play a critical role in shaping the nature of this expansion. Geopolitically, the world is becoming increasingly multipolar, and as economic power shifts so too does the respective importance of certain currencies. The rapid a
42、scendance of Chinas Renminbi, now the second most-used currency for trade finance, is a case in point. Currency markets have also been reshaped by the adoption of the Euro. Advances in technology have already changed the way we conduct payments, and will continue to heavily influence the market. Pay
43、Pal, the provider of online payment solutions, illustrates the growth potential of such electronic/platform-based payments, having generated US$1.95 billion in revenue in Q2 of 20141. GLOBAL PAYMENTS 2020: TRANSFORMATION AND CONVERGENCE / 6 Elsewhere in the technology space, internationally-known br
44、ands such as Amazon, Google and Apple are looking to monetise their enormous client reach to expand in the payments space, as reported in Forbes magazine in December 20132. Global demographics are influencing the payments landscape through redistribution of financial resources across borders (see be
45、low figure 1). High growth markets in Asia, Africa and elsewhere are developing their own payment propositions for areas as varied as online commerce and local agricultural trade. Global foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows increased by 9% to US$1.45 trillion in 2013, according to UNCTADs 2014 Wo
46、rld Investment Report3. Developed countries currently account for 39% of these flows (a share worth US$566 billion), while investment flows to developing economies grew to a new high of US$778 billion (a 54% share). International remittances present another burgeoning source of global payment flows.
47、 According to the World Banks Migration and Development Brief4, global remittances (including those to high-income countries) are estimated to reach US$581 billion this year, and grow to a record US$681 billion by 2016. Remittances to developing countries are projected to continue growing strongly o
48、ver the medium term, averaging an annual growth rate of 8.4% to reach US$516 billion in 2016. Finally, trade flows are being reshaped by the increasing engagement of developing markets, with intra-regional trade flows becoming increasingly significant, according to a recent McKinsey in Germany, Capi
49、ta6 reports that alternative payments account for 66% of e-commerce purchases; and in China, alternative payment method Alipay dominates the market, and has, in fact, overtaken PayPal to become the largest global mobile payments platform, with over 300 million registered users. Fig. 2, below, depicts the evolution of the global payments market and the growth of alternative payment mechanisms. According to Worldpay, alternative payments could account for 59% of settlement activity by 2017, up from 43% in 2012. *All figures are from 2012.
