The pace of innovation increases with each passing year. By the end of the decade, experts agree, we will see significant innovations that will reshape commerce and pave the way for “the next economy.”
As commerce evolves, so will digital payments.
The technologies that enable these new ways of paying and being paid will also support key growth drivers in the UK. It is therefore important that policymakers and industry work together to ensure that the UK remains a major hub for fintech in the years and decades to come.
This is the third report from Mastercard’s Get Britain Growing policy programme. It is a collection of views from across the financial services industry, consumers, businesses and third sector organizations on how we create sustainable and equitable growth across the whole the UK economy by better exploiting digital payments technologies and innovation.
This paper focuses on how we enable growth by continuing to support digital payments innovation as the foundation of the next generation of UK fintech, in particular by creating the right ecosystem to drive fintech innovation in the ESG space and supporting the transition to net zero emissions.
