An eclectic mix of news this week in the world of Payments and lots going on. There’s news about the latest technology, how procurement is under the spotlight again and news on a new payments magazine which is available to download.
Technology
There is an endless stream of news in the fintech space but two articles, in particular, caught our eye…
Lawmakers are trying to get their heads around blockchain. A US committee had many questions for technologists, entrepreneurs and legal experts testifying at a hearing on digital currency. http://bit.ly/1nRF79R
Plus, an article on fintech lessons from across the globe
Procurement
New analysis from the U.K. is casting doubt on whether governments can effectively break new ground in digital payments & trade and whether they can set a positive example for the rest of industry. http://bit.ly/1RNpxUJ
