What You'll Do
Payments revenue globally is poised to expand by 5.9% annually through 2028, maintaining a growth streak that started after the 2008 recession and adding about $1.0 trillion to the payments revenue pool-raising the total to roughly $2.5 trillion. But attaining growth above GDP levels will be difficult for established players. To gain or maintain leading market positions, they must accelerate digitization, gain scale, and realize the potential of developing markets.
