CONSUMERS: Eurocheques in the dock The European Commission feels users have had a raw deal, especially in France. In 1989 some 42mn. Eurocheques were issued abroad, including 27mn. within the European Community, for a total value of ECU 5,000mn.*. Practical, guaranteed, accepted virtually everywhere, Eurocheques have been used in increasingly large numbers since the last 15 years. In 1984 the European Commission even granted Eurocheque International, which had launched the scheme, an exemption from the EC's very strict competition rules.

  • A Study on Debit Cards
    Dr. Yellaswamy Ambati, International Journal of Research in Management, Economics and Commerce, ISSN 2250-057X, Impact Factor: 6.384, Volume 08 Issue 02, February 2018, Page 248-253 A Study on Debit Cards Dr. Yellaswamy Ambati (Lecturer in Commerce, TS Model Junior College, Jangaon, Warangal, Telangana State, India) Abstract: A Debit Card is a plastic payment card that can be used instead of cash when making purchases. It is also known as a bank card or check card. It is similar to a credit card, but unlike a credit card, the money comes directly from the user's bank account when performing a transaction. Some cards may carry a stored value with which a payment is made, while most relay a message to the cardholder's bank to withdraw funds from a payer's designated bank account. In some cases, the primary account number is assigned exclusively for use on the Internet and there is no physical card. In many countries, the use of debit cards has become so widespread that their volume has overtaken or entirely replaced cheques and, in some instances, cash transactions. The development of debit cards, unlike credit cards and charge cards, has generally been country specific resulting in a number of different systems around the world, which were often incompatible. Since the mid-2000s, a number of initiatives have allowed debit cards issued in one country to be used in other countries and allowed their use for internet and phone purchases. Keywords: Debit Card, Credit Card, ATM, Bank, Master Card I. INTRODUCTION Debit cards are a great way to get more financial freedom without the risk of falling into debt.

  • Recent Developments in UK Payment Clearing Systems
    Recent developments in UK payment clearing systems The past three years have seen a major reorganisation of the administration of the London-based payment clearing systems. The most significant and far-reaching development has been a change from a system run by a smaff number of large 'clearing' banks to one owned and controffed by a wider membership and open to any appropriately regulated financial institution which meets explicit and objective criteria for entry. This article describes this new structure, and touches upon some other payment system developments in the United Kingdom. The need for change money transmission services have not been able to enter the market on equitable terms, the government should A payment clearing system has existed in London for then consider whether the joint ownership of the clearing some two hundred years and for much of that time it has systems for cheques and electronic payments by the been based in premises known as the Bankers' Clearing members of the CLCB ...is stit! appropriate'.

  • Recent Developments in Electronic Money
    Deutsche Bundesbank Monthly Report June 1999 Recent The use of electronic money in non- developments in banks' payments poses a series of ques- tions to monetary policy. These issues electronic money were already presented in detail and discussed in an earlier Monthly Report of the Deutsche Bundesbank. 1 This art- icle is a follow-on to the earlier Report and deals with current trends in elec- tronic money. In the meantime, initial experience has been gained concern- ing its use in over-the-counter (OTC) trade in Germany; it has not been used as frequently as was originally expect- ed. However, with the development of electronic commerce on the Internet, new uses for electronic money are emerging. Theoretical considerations indicate that electronic money will most likely assume the role of a pay- ment medium for small amounts. 2 However, one cannot rule out the pos- sibility that, in the foreseeable future, the potential for the use of electronic money will be capitalised on more strongly than in the past. This is borne out by network effects in OTC trade and the lack of alternative payment in- struments with similar features on the Internet. Thus, electronic money may potentially present new challenges to monetary policy. It is therefore appro- priate to set clear rules governing the issuance of electronic money. 1 Deutsche Bundesbank, Monetary policy and payment systems, Monthly Report, March 1997, pages 33 to 46. 2 See: G. Kabelac (1999), Network money as a medium of exchange, Discussion paper 5/99, Economic Research Group of the Deutsche Bundesbank, to be published shortly.

  • The Making of Europe by Payment Cards. Hidden Integration in the Era of Neoliberalism
    15-01-2015 The Making of Europe by Payment Cards. Hidden Integration in the Era of Neoliberalism. Politics, Finance and Technology from 1992 to 2010 Bachelor Thesis European Studies Vincent Verhagen S1003461 Faculty of Management and Governance Department of Science, Technology, and Policy Studies Examcommittee: Dr. A.A. Albert de la Bruheze Dr. ir. F.J. Dijksterhuis Abstract This thesis aims to reconstruct the process of the development of the SEPA for Cards in the timeframe of 1992 up to 2010 and expose its contribution to the making of Europe. To reconstruct this process this thesis answers the question: How did the development of payment cards in the Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA) contribute to the making of Europe? In order to answer this question the theory of Misa & Schot is used which claims that European integration, often perceived as a political, economic or cultural process, is an emergent outcome of inclusion and exclusion of actors through technology which causes tensions and interactions. This approach must be placed in a neoliberal context to comprehend the relationship of the market actors with the governmental actors and their visions of Europe. This research finds that the SEPA for Cards knows three actors who perceive Europe from different perspectives which causes tensions and are related to the infrastructure for the SEPA for Cards. Furthermore the role of the US must be stressed because they influenced Europe and the card payments system for decades. Europe and the US started competing again with different technologies for payment systems. This thesis concludes that the SEPA for Cards contributed to the making of Europe through a new infrastructure which provides a platform where actors of the market and the government interact with each other.
