Interesting comments from Marion King, Trustee of OBIE at the https://lnkd.in/ezwadQYJ yesterday, along with some great data points. “Open Banking together with Real time payments could and should provide a viable alternative to cards” “The Economic model, the pricing mechanism. How is this [open banking] paid for; who pays in the value chain.
