Systemic risk in payments

Abstract

Payment platforms in the retail and market segments have continued to operate without major mishaps during the recent financial crises, coping with occasional spikes in transaction volumes. Although gratifying, these performances must not cause the risks associated with payment platforms to be underestimated. However, an analysis of the systemic risk in payments cannot be confined to the risk associated with these platforms, even if they play a key role within the overall system. The question has to be tackled more holistically by applying the risk analysis methods used in banking and finance to the payments sector. The following article applies these methods to retail payments, an area that is undergoing far-reaching structural change and whose role is to ensure the security and traceability of commercial transactions.
