  • Payment Systems in India: Opportunities and Challenges
    Journal of Internet Banking and Commerce An open access Internet journal (http://www.icommercecentral.com) Journal of Internet Banking and Commerce, April 2016, vol. 21, no. 2 Payment Systems in India: Opportunities and Challenges DEEPANKAR ROY Assistant Professor, National Institute of Bank Management (NIBM), Kondhwe khurd, Pune, 411048, Maharashtra, India, Tel: 919890448546; Email: [email protected], [email protected] AMARENDRA SAHOO Professor, Flame University, 1102 5a, Kalpataru Estate, Pimple Gurav, Pune, Maharashtra, India, Tel: 919503394455; Email: [email protected] Abstract An efficient payment system acts as an enabler for speeding up liquidity flow in the economy, apart from ensuring proper utilization of limited resources it also eliminates systemic risks. Flow of funds across borders demands the security, integrity of the payment system and the harmonization of the systems in the related countries. The paper dwells with the need to modernize the payment system and migrate from paper-based to electronic mode of payment system to enhance efficiency and save cost. It delves in to the core of payment systems in the select countries with a comparative analysis. Benchmarking against the BIS core principles of Systemically Important Payment Systems revised as core principles of Financial Markets Infrastructure has been done to ensure convergence with the international best standards for Governance of Payment systems. The payment system of any country, though advanced and sophisticated, does face various risks, viz. bank failures, frauds, counter-party failures, etc. Such aberrations could JIBC April 2016, Vol. 21, No.2 - 2 - trigger a chain-reaction that might ultimately result in disruption and distrust of the payment system.
