  • Payments Failure Hilary J Allen, American University Washington College of Law
    American University Washington College of Law From the SelectedWorks of Hilary Allen February 21, 2020 Payments Failure Hilary J Allen, American University Washington College of Law Available at: https://works.bepress.com/hilary-allen/94/ Draft dated February 21, 2020 Payments Failure Hilary J. Allen1 The processing of retail payments has traditionally been the domain of regulated banks, but technologically sophisticated players like Venmo, AliPay, Bitcoin and Ripple (and potentially Facebook’s Libra) are making incursions into the market. Even within regulated banks, payments processing is becoming increasingly reliant on new technologies – JPMorgan Chase’s “JPMCoin” is just one example. However, limited attention has been paid to the new kinds of operational risks associated with these complex new methods of processing retail payments. This Article argues that technological failures at a payments provider (bank or non-bank) could be amplified in unexpected ways as they interact with technological failures at other payments providers. In a worst case scenario, a cascading failure of payments technologies could cause significant parts of the retail payments system to shut down – an eventuality that would have a significant economic impact if people were unable to transact for a prolonged period of time. This Article is the first to raise the possibility of a financial crisis precipitated primarily by operational failures – such a crisis would look more like a rolling blackout than a bank run. Because of this possibility, this Article argues that it is insufficient to approach the risk of payments failure with a purely prudential strategy. This Article therefore makes the case for a complementary “macro-operational” approach to regulation, rooted in complexity theory, to deal with the possibility that our retail payments system – and the broader economy – could be hobbled by the systemic interactions of operational risks.

The founder and now Executive Chairman of a company made headlines when he told the world that Alibaba has the potential to be a $1 Trillion company - and that one of the ways he hoped to accomplish that is by increasing Alibaba’s revenue from outside of China. By a lot. Today, about 4 percent of Alibaba’s sales are from outside of China. If Ma has his way, that will rise to about half its sales. How he plans to do this is what you might expect – by recruiting a host of businesses to open up storefronts on Alibaba. But not just any businesses. Alibaba already counts a host of large and well established brands as part of its coterie of businesses that have a presence on its platform. From Nike to Neiman Marcus and Burberry to Bloomingdales, big brands have lined up to establish a virtual presence in a country in which establishing a physical presence is wrought with complexity.
