  • Global Payments 2020-30 a Quantium Shift in the Next Decade Australia's Challenge
    McLean Roche Consulting Group Global Payments 2020-30 A quantium shift in the next decade Australia’s challenge – to keep up 1 Submission To RBA Payments Boards – Future of Payments – January 2020 McLean Roche Consulting Group AUSTRALIA’S PAYMENT CHALLENGE Australian payments will see more change in the next 10 years than the last 40 years combined. Australia has an expensive US/Anglo legacy based retail payments system which will be challenge by new technology, new data uses, new players and the need to protect consumer rights and data. Consumer retail payments total $975.7 billion in 2019 and will reach $3.2 trillion by 2030. A faster rate of expansion will occur in SME and Corporate payments. Payments are a very high volume, low margin business with even the smallest changes in revenues or margins delivering significant changes in actual dollars. Regulators around the globe will be challenged by forces of change and this requires all regulators and politicians to be aware of the scale of change and ensure the regulatory frame work changes and evolves quickly. 4 MYTHS DOMINATE THE NARRATIVE 1. CASH WILL DISAPPEAR – many including regulators keep predicting the death of cash. While bank notes may disappear, various forms of cash now dominate retail payments in Australia combining to total 71% share. 2. CREDIT CARDS DOMINATE LENDING – consumer credit cards are in decline having peaked 8 years ago. All the leading indicators are falling – average balance, average spend, revolve rate and number of cards. Corporate and Commercial cards are the only growth story. 3. DIGITAL PAYMENTS ARE THE FUTURE – many payment products use the ‘digital’ tag for marketing ‘glint’ however the reality is all payment products using Visa, MasterCard, Amex or eftpos payment networks are not digital.
