Targets for addressing the four challenges of cross-border payments consultation: European Banking Associations response
BRUSSELS, 19 July 2021 – The EBF, together with other banking sector associations, has responded to the Financial Stability Board’s consultation on Targets for Addressing the Four Challenges of Cross-Border Payments. Overall, we appreciate the initiative for global action. However, we believe that such a complex overhaul of the global payments system requires a thorough analysis as well as an analysis of the whole system, in order to define a target date. Right now, the targets are a strong challenge for all parties involved and some adjustments of the proposed targets are needed.
