Under the Microscope remains a one of a kind publication, dedicated towards providing an analysis of the performance of local banks over the last financial period together with a range of insightful articles developed in-house by local KPMG thought leaders. In fact, in this year’s publication one will find an array of thought leadership pieces, aimed at stimulating one’s mind with a view to generating an element of thought and consideration to an ever evolving financial services industry which is now, more than ever, driven by regulatory and technological innovation. FinTech and Regtech today are still in their infancy, despite these buzzwords thrown left, right and centre. In this publication we really seek to explore how the financial services industry has shifted, and how we can expect to be able to change in line with the new landscape we are all currently living. Across the publication, readers will also find a number of QR codes which will provide the user with a visual explanation and representation of the content of the respective article, provided directly by the thought leaders themselves. We encourage readers to make use of this functionality. We trust you find this edition as interesting and of value to read as it was for us to prepare.

  • PRESS RELEASE Basic Payment Account – Your Right to Basic
    PRESS RELEASE Basic Payment Account – Your right to Basic Banking Services Citizens legally residing in Malta have the right to open a basic payment account, for personal use, in a number of Maltese banks. Banking services are today considered as essential and consumers depend upon access to modern payment services. The right to open a basic payment account seeks to eliminate financial exclusion being experienced at EU level. In line with the Payment Accounts Regulations, enacted through Legal Notice 411 of 2016, the Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA) is ensuring that this right is enjoyed by all persons legally resident in Malta or another EU Member State and is striving to achieve this objective two-fold: it is communicating directly with the banks to ensure that citizens’ rights are respected when it comes to payment accounts with basic features. Concurrently, in line with its obligations to raise awareness among the public about the availability of payment accounts with basic features, the MFSA has launched an educational campaign on the features of this account. Dr Michelle Mizzi Buontempo, Head of the Conduct Supervisory Unit remarked that “the MFSA is committed towards taking the necessary steps to ensure that the legitimate expectations of customers making use of banking services are promoted and protected. The Authority’s efforts are intended to safeguard the right to access basic banking services thus ensuring that Malta’s growth in this sector is truly enjoyed by all sectors of the population”. A payment account with basic features allows consumers to: • deposit funds • withdraw cash at the counters of the bank or at ATMs in Malta, Gozo and other EU Member States • pay by direct debits within the European Union • effect payments with a debit card, including online payments • receive and order credit transfers • set-up standing orders Persons with no fixed address, refugees, stateless persons and asylum seekers can also apply for a payment account with basic features.
