Key risks Payment Providers are navigating
Digital payments are booming
Despite economic challenges, digital payments thrive with customer-centric focus and secure data practices coming to light. Changing behaviors from the pandemic are accelerating the shift towards online payments. E-wallets also support financial inclusion and eco-friendly transactions. There’s more focus now on speed, affordability, and security, while expanding into niche markets.
A major threat to payment providers is that their clients are more likely to default in today’s shaky economy leaving them with a large bill to pay. This risk becomes amplified as payment providers operate in global markets across multiple sectors. Extensive company coverage, macroeconomic data, peer analytics, and Early Warning System from EDF-X help quantify and manage credit risks from chargebacks and merchant defaults.
