Transparency, openness, accessibility and dialogue with all stakeholders are important prerequisites in the payment system.

Our members provide payment services on the Dutch market: banks, payment institutions and electronic money institutions. The shared tasks for infrastructure, standards and common product features are assigned to the Payments Association. We aim for a socially efficient, secure, reliable and accessible payment system. To this end, we deploy activities that are of common interest to our members. We are committed, meaningful and interconnecting in everything we do, to unburden our members where and when possible.

  • How Banks and Fintechs Create and Capture Value with Mobile Payment
    How banks and fintechs create and capture value with mobile payment via their business value network: A value network case study of ING’s Mobiel Betalen and WeChat Pay’s Quick Pay. Author: Laura Frank University of Twente P.O. Box 217, 7500AE Enschede The Netherlands Network value analysis of mobile payment solutions has shown that in order to deliver value and create the service, a network of partners is required. Solutions of different providers, banks and fintechs, have shown that both have similar network partners in place. Common partners among mobile payment solutions are banks or actors with a payment license, smartphone manufacturers, stores, merchants and generally places that accept mobile payments. Depending on the technology that got chosen by the payment provider, further actors are part of the network. All actors within the network receive their own individual value by being part of the network. Mobile payment solutions that make use of quick response (QR) codes for payments are easier to facilitate than payment solutions that make use of near field communication (NFC). This is due to that users and merchants simply need a unique QR code that is connected to their mobile payment account, while payment solutions that make use of NFC technology need payment terminals that facilitate contactless payments as well as a suitable smartphone. By limiting the payment solution to only certain smartphones, payment terminals and operating systems, providers limit their potential user base. Even though multiple network partners of the fintech and bank payment solution got distinguished, some value chain elements still remain, as the parent companies of both take on multiple task and functions of the network.

  • Does Ownership Have an Effect on Accounting Quality?
    Master Degree Project in Accounting Does Ownership have an Effect on Accounting Quality? Andreas Danielsson and Jochem Groenenboom Supervisor: Jan Marton Master Degree Project No. 2013:14 Graduate School Abstract Research on accounting quality in banks has evolved around the manipulation of the Loan Loss Provision and has been discussed in terms of earnings management and income smoothing. Key variables used to explain the manipulation of Loan Loss Provisions have been investor protection, legal enforcement, financial structure and regulations. This study will extend previous research by investigating the effect of state, private, savings and cooperative ownership on accounting quality. In this study data from more than 600 major banks were collected in the European Economic Area, covering annual reports between 2005 and 2011. Similar to prevalent research, the Loan Loss Provision is used as a central indicator of accounting quality. In contrast to existent literature, accounting quality is not explained by the manipulation of the Loan Loss Provision in terms of income smoothing or earnings management. Instead, accounting quality is addressed in terms of validity and argued to be an outcome of the predictive power of the Loan Loss Provision in forecasting the actual outcome of credit losses. The findings of this study confirm that ownership has an effect on accounting quality. All but one form of ownership investigated showed significant differences. State ownership was found to have a positive effect on accounting quality, both in comparison to private banks and all other banks. On the other hand, savings ownership was shown to have a negative impact on accounting quality compared to private and other banks.
