Banking & Payments Bulletin

The Banking & Payments Bulletin delivers monthly insights on retail and commercial banking trends for senior banking executives. Each issue features expert analysis on digital banking transformation, payments innovation, ATM market dynamics, financial crime prevention, and strategic priorities shaping the industry.

July-August 2026 Issue Highlights

The July/August 2026 edition of the Banking & Payments Bulletin examines how institutions are optimizing application fraud defenses for digital onboarding; the challenge facing commercial banks to build, buy or fall behind in the age of execution; and the surge in cross-border card spending which is poised to outpace domestic spending fivefold. We consider how the wealth management platform of today will shape the next-gen advisor of 2030and look at shifting payment demands in Europe as drivers of innovative strategies. We also explore the ATM landscape in low-cash societies, and feature a profile of ATM and cards intelligence in Canada.
