Abstract

This paper draws on recent international experiences in modernising legal and regulatory frameworks for payment services. It proposes an analytical framework based on a four-step process: (1) identifying payment activities; (2) licensing entities and designating systems; (3) analysing and managing risks, and (4) promoting legal certainty. The paper concludes that as payment activities evolve and potential systemic risks heighten, adherence to international standards and additional regulatory requirements are warranted.
