"In June 2010, the Committee on Payment and Settlement Systems (CPSS) set up a working group to investigate developments in retail payments, focusing especially on innovations. This report, produced by that group, first provides an overview of innovative retail payment activities in the CPSS and other selected countries from a fact-finding exercise, which attempted to cover influential developments in retail payment instruments and schemes over the past decade. Based on the trends observed and the economics of retail payments, the report identifies a number of exogenous and endogenous factors that could serve as drivers for retail payment innovations or as barriers to them. The analysis was also used to suggest some pointers as to what can be expected over the next five years. Finally, the report identifies a number of issues for central banks concerning their various responsibilities and tasks as catalysts, overseers and/or operators of payment systems."--Abstract.

Ways to make retail payments using the internet and mobile phones are proliferating. Some are offering new access routes to existing payment means, others use different means to transfer value, but all attempt to provide greater convenience and choice in payment services. Few, however, have reached critical mass and none has displaced existing payment methods. Nevertheless, the prospect that these new services could be widely used raises some policy questions. For example, central banks are interested in any potential effects on financial stability and, in the longer term, in whether such innovation might have monetary policy implications. For these reasons, central banks monitor the evolution of the market, even though any such impacts may be a long way off. Moreover, it may well be that the system-wide risks will be relatively small even if e-payment usage becomes significant.

The United States still has a heavily paper-based retail payment system when compared with many other developed economies, but the shift to electronic payments has been bigger and more decisive than commonly perceived. For the first time ever, check use declined in the mid-1990s, and among electronic payments the adoption of debit cards has occurred at an extremely rapid pace. The purpose of this article is to promote greater awareness of the nature of recent changes in retail payments in the United States, and to explore some of the key implications of those changes for the banking industry. We describe recent trends in retail payments, highlighting the surprising drop in check usage, and consider the impact of changes in retail payments on bank revenue and costs. We conclude that, although banks are likely to realize substantial long-run payments-related improvements in productivity, they face greater-than-commonly-appreciated near-term challenges.

On 25-26 May 2009 the European Central Bank and De Nederlandsche Bank hosted a conference entitled "Retail payments: integration and innovation". The aim of the conference was to better understand current developments in retail payment markets and to identify possible future trends by bringing together around 200 high-level policy-makers, academics, market practitioners and central bankers from all over the world. This document provides a comprehensive summary of the two-day conference and highlights the main messages and key policy issues identified. The keynote speeches, panel sessions and paper discussions centred around four main themes: the relevance of retail banking and payments for banks' profitability; the integration, competition and regulation of retail payment markets; payment habits and the adoption of new payment innovations; and the future of retail banking and retail payment markets. This conference summary shows that the expectations and requirements of payment users are strongly influenced by major social trends and a growing demand for more innovative payment solutions. Overall, the conference findings will further stimulate our efforts to foster innovation and integration in retail banking and payments.
