The Revised Payment Services Directive (PSD2) introduces new regulations for payment services in the EU that will be implemented over the next few years. PSD2 aims to improve the security of payment transactions, increase competition by opening banking APIs to third parties, and enhance consumer protection. It establishes rules for different categories of payment service providers and delegates responsibilities to competent authorities and member states. PSD2 seeks to create a more integrated European payments market through measures related to transparency, rights and obligations for all stakeholders in the payments process.

The document discusses the implications of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) on the Indian banking sector. Some key points:
1. GST implementation posed challenges for banks due to higher tax rates (18% vs. previous 15% service tax) and requirement to register separately in each state of operation.
2. Under GST, banks can only claim 50% of tax credit on capital goods versus full credit previously, increasing their costs.
3. GST compliance involves difficulties around adjudication across multiple authorities and determining correct state for tax payment.
4. However, GST also provides benefits like reduced tax compliance burden, elimination of cascading taxes, and full input tax credit versus only partial
Accenture-Payments-Regulation-Will-Disrupt-EU-Card-Payment-Ecosystem💡 David Baratta
The document discusses how the revised Payment Services Directive (PSD2) and Interchange Fee Regulation (IFR) are reshaping Europe's payments landscape by driving changes in the card payments ecosystem. PSD2 and IFR will impact acquirers, issuers, and network operators by reducing interchange fees, increasing transparency, and enabling new entrants. While this regulatory change creates uncertainty and risks disintermediation, it also provides opportunities for innovation in payment initiation services, credit and lending solutions, and for network operators to offer new infrastructure services.
My response to HM Treasury consultation on Implementing PSD2Simon Deane-Johns
The document responds to a UK government consultation on implementing the revised Payment Services Directive (PSD2). It raises several concerns about the proposed regulatory approach:
1. PSD2 leaves many aspects open to interpretation by member states, risking uneven enforcement and "regulatory creep" as businesses struggle with uncertainty.
2. Differences in how the UK and other states interpret scope, exemptions, and compliance standards could lead to inconsistent treatment of payment service providers operating across Europe.
3. Post-Brexit, UK and EU firms may want to continue cross-border business but uncertainty over "passporting" rights could force them to set up new authorized entities in the EU.
4. Some
The PSD2 entered into force in 2016 and must be transposed into national law by early 2018. It will create opportunities for new business models and the RTS (Regulatory Technical Standards), the most important acessory component, must be transposed into national law by the end of 2018.

Universal api dataexchangestandards_remittanceindustryVikas Mujumdar
The document proposes a universal REST API and data exchange platform to facilitate integration between remittance service providers (RSPs). It describes the current point-to-point integration approach used by RSPs and its limitations. The proposed solution changes this to a hub-and-spoke model where RSPs integrate with a centralized platform using standard REST interfaces and JSON data formats, rather than each other directly. This allows asynchronous exchange of transaction and reference data with support for requests, acknowledgements, confirmations and rejections to ensure consistency.
Mobile money systems allow people to conduct financial transactions using their mobile phones. A presentation provided an overview of Ethiopia's mobile money landscape and system workflows. It noted that while mobile money has grown globally, adoption has been stagnant in Ethiopia potentially due to factors like the bank-led model, lack of interoperability, limited accessibility and awareness. However, opportunities exist for telecom companies to capitalize on their large customer bases and infrastructure to drive financial inclusion among Ethiopia's unbanked population through convenient, secure mobile money services.

The document discusses a sinkhole that formed above the Solikamsk-2 potash mine in Russia in November 2014. It describes how flooding of mines can be difficult to control once a salt mass is breached, and the flooding of Solikamsk-2 mine will likely lead to its abandonment. Similar sinkhole collapses have occurred at other potash mines in the region that were mining at shallow depths, allowing underground cavities to rise and intersect the surface years later. Mining shallow evaporite deposits can exacerbate natural subsidence processes and lead to future land surface instability issues for Uralkali if extraction continues in the region.

PSD2 (Payment Services Directive) aims at making payment more secure and cheaper, further opening the market for PSPs in an integrated European market. PSD2 replaces PSD1 in force since 2007 extending its scope
The document provides an overview of the EU and UK legal framework governing payments, including the Payment Services Directive (PSD) and PSD2. PSD2 introduces new opportunities for payment initiation and account information services by requiring banks to provide access to payment account information. However, it may also result in costs for existing payment service providers who will need to make system and process changes. While new fintech entrants could take advantage of these new services, existing providers may resist the changes due to security concerns and loss of customer interaction. Overall, PSD2 presents both opportunities and challenges for existing businesses and new entrants in the evolving payments landscape.
Understanding the Regulatory Evolution of Mobile Commerce and the Opportun...Arief Gunawan
The document summarizes key concepts and regulatory frameworks related to mobile commerce and money transfer services, including anti-money laundering regulations, prudential banking regulations, payment service directives, e-money regulations, and rules around the use of agents.

A primer and overview of Open Banking, also known as Payment Service Directive 2 or PSD2, which went into effect in the UK on 13 January 2018. Produced by Digital Ventures, the Fintech arm of Siam Commercial Bank. Credit to Nat Wittayatanaseth for the research.
European banks face significant disruption from PSD2 and the evolving payments landscape. PSD2 will accelerate competition by regulating new payment institutions and requiring banks to provide third party access to customer accounts through APIs. This threatens to reduce banks' payments revenue by up to 43% by 2020 as new entrants capture market share. Banks must choose from four strategic options to respond: minimal compliance; facilitating API access; advising on new products; or expanding ecosystems. How banks adapt will impact their future revenues, business models, and role in customers' financial lives.
PSD2 is the second Payment Services Directive, which is set to further revolutionise the payments industry. PSD2 is affecting everything from the way we pay online, to what information we see when making a payment.

Simont Braun - Webinar PSD3 PSR Evolution or Revolution?FinTech Belgium
The document summarizes key changes proposed in the draft PSD3 and PSR regulations. It outlines the timeline for the draft, approval process, and implementation. The main objectives of PSD3/PSR are strengthening user protection, improving open banking competitiveness, better enforcement across member states, and improving non-bank access to payment systems. Key changes include strengthening authorization standards, clarifying capital requirements, enhancing access to payment systems and accounts, improving open banking and data sharing standards, and bolstering enforcement powers. Significant guidance will be required from the EBA on implementation. While increased harmonization is aimed for, some question if full harmonization can be achieved given optionality left for member states.
European Banking Authority Guidelines on the Security of Internet PaymentsJuan Manuel Nieto
This document presents the “Guidelines on the security of internet payments” issued by the European Banking Authority the 19th December 2014.
The Guidelines are based on the recommendations of the European Forum on the Security of Retail Payments (SecuRe Pay), a voluntary cooperative initiative set up by the ECB and comprising relevant authorities from the European Economic Area (EEA).
The guidelines set the minimum security requirements that Payment Services Providers in the EU will be expected to implement by 1 August 2015, including considering services related to cards, credit transfers, e-mandate and e-money.
The document discusses recent EU regulations that have impacted payments, including PSD2 and MiCA. PSD2 introduced third party providers and open banking, allowing payment initiation and access to account information. MiCA established rules for crypto assets and service providers. Upcoming regulations like PSD3, FIDA and instant payments reforms aim to improve competition and access. While regulations can burden fintechs, they also create opportunities by enabling new business models, adding stability and trust, and facilitating data sharing and innovation.
The Human Chain Open Banking - The Future of Payments White Paper V1.1Brendan Jones
The document discusses how regulation and new technologies are driving changes in the banking and payments industry. It outlines how the Payment Services Directive 2 (PSD2) aims to foster innovation by requiring banks to provide third party access to customer account information and payment initiation through APIs. This will allow new entrants like fintech companies to develop services that aggregate customer data from multiple accounts and initiate payments directly from a customer's bank account. PSD2 has the potential to significantly disrupt the traditional banking model and payments landscape by enabling more competition and greater consumer choice of financial products and services.

PSD2 Strategic options for banks_Accenture Strategy and Accenture Payment Ser...Ilkka Ruotsila
The document discusses how the revised Payment Services Directive (PSD2) will accelerate disruption of the payments industry and threaten banks' revenues by enabling third party access to customer payment accounts. Key points:
- PSD2 mandates that banks provide third party providers access to customer payment accounts via APIs, allowing new types of payment initiation and account information services.
- This access could displace banks from the payments value chain and redirect revenues from card transactions, impacting fees currently received by banks, processors and card networks.
- Payment initiation services provided by third parties may offer merchants significantly lower transaction fees than banks, incentivizing merchants to use these new services and further threatening bank revenues.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

Revised Payment Services Directive (PSD2) gets established from
Dec, 2015 and will be implemented across banks in the next couple
of years. PSD2 will introduce measures that banks, payment service
providers, payment institutions and others will need to comply. It
not only discusses about compliance and regulatory standards, but
about market standards, competition from third party providers
and opportunity to open virtual trade routes outside the European
Union.
PSD2 works around the
collective information
gathered from experience
of various banks, payment
institutions and payment
service providers after
PSD1 became law. The
working principles of PSD2
revolves around one of the
following major topics.
Improve level playing
field for Payment
Service Providers –
Since the inception of
Payment Services Directive
in 2007, advancements in
technology and payment
industry have continued at
a rapid pace. New
innovations in payment
services has brought better
options for consumers and
merchants. PSD2 has
revised the role of payment
service providers to cope-
up with the changes in
market. Keeping in a
futuristic development
model, ample options are
provided for innovation
and progress. By improving
competition within the
domain, the European
Banking Association brings
in zests from the best of the
breed and steers banks to
self-evolve.
Safer and more secure
payment transactions –
Online data is being
subjected to multiple
scrutiny in order to avoid
hacks and leaks.
Developments in security &
cryptography standards,
guarantees better security
and safety procedures for
financial transactions. The
growth of virtual
currencies, de-centralised
settlement system and
block-chain technology has
provided means for better
structure in payment
transactions. Online
transactions has increased
manifold in the past 5 years
and the number of
interactions between
consumers, merchants and
banks on devices (mobile,
tablets, laptops etc.) has
amplified. To ensure the
audit and security of
transactions as well as to
maintain a low tolerance
towards data leakage – all
stakeholders must adopt
safer and more secure
payment transactions.
Consumer Protection –
PSD1 enabled payment
service providers to act as
intermediaries for various
banking services. PSD2
allows third party
providers in to the
payments arena for the
betterment of services.
EBA ensures that
consumers are not affected
due to any malpractice or
fraudulent nature of the
services offered by
2. PSD2 BRIEFING
2
different participants in the
program. Protection to
data-privacy laws and
consumer information has
to be maintained within the
ambit of regulation.
Stringent actions must be
put in place to ensure that
payment service providers,
account services payment
service providers, payment
initiation service providers
and payment institutions
do not expose critical
information.
Harmonise pricing –
the interchange card fee
and Payments Account
Directive (May, 2014)
ensures to achieve a level
playing field for pricing and
billing strategies, usage of
common terms, transfer of
accounts, opening new
accounts and charges are
transparent and common
across all member states in
the Union. PSD2 warrants
that these are continued in
practice for payment
transactions to improve
trade relations and money
flow within the member
states.
PSD2 enables cross-
currency transactions as
long as one of the parties in
the transaction is
registered within any
member state. Cross-
border trade and relative
positioning of Euro
currency in the world
payments market will
intensify. All the above
objectives shall lead to
efficient and more
integrated European
payments world.

information requirements, rights
and obligations of respective
payment service providers in
respect to the provision as a
business or occupation.

4. Title II – Payment Service Providers
4
Title II explains about various rules and obligations a payment institution must adhere to. It also
delegates responsibility to competent authorities and member states wherever applicable like
granting/withdrawal of authorisation, safeguarding and maintenance of requirements and
record-keeping. Member states have the responsibility to ensure that Payment service providers
meet a certain Level of Assurance (LoA) by means of initial capital based on the type of
payment service they would like to provide. PSPs could avail the services of agents, branches or
entities to whom they can outsource their services. The EBA is directed to maintain a register
where all PSPs must be
authorised. This register will be
available online and can be
observed across all member
states.
The sections under this title lays
out different principles on which
PSPs should act and apportion
their tasks. It allows PSPs to
challenge competent authorities
by the right to apply to courts and
settlement of any disagreements
of competent authorities of
different member states. The
articles defined under this title
further goes on to explain the
access rights of a payment
institution and credit institution.
The services granted or accessed
by member state or competent
authorities must maintain a level
of discrimination and should be without prejudice to the services offered. It also advices enhanced
co-operation between competent authorities of all member states. The Regulatory Technical
Standards (RTS) and Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) for the register will be finalised by
the EBA by July 2017 and shall enter-in to-force 18 months from then. There are set of RTS which
shall be released by EBA at various timelines in the near future (a detailed list is available at
official website).
Key Points to Remember
PSPs must maintain initial capital depending on
the type of payment services offered
Member states must appoint competent
authorities for various safeguarding purpose
Payment institutions and payment service
providers must adhere to certain guidelines to be
authorised and provide their services
EBA will release a web-register where details of all
authorised PSPs will be maintained. This shall be
accessible across all member states of the Union
PSPs can operate in a member state other than
the home member state where they have been
authorised, but will have to provide information to
competent authorities of the member state
5. Title III – Transparency of conditions and information
requirements for Payment Services
5
The 2 major topics that are deliberated under this title are ‘single payment transactions’ and
‘framework contracts’ and any payment transactions that are enclosed by them. Provisions to
microenterprises are applied the same way as it is applicable to a consumer. Whenever any
payment is made, the currency in which transaction is done is agreed with both the payer and
payee. Currency conversion will apply exchange rates are to be supplied before initiation of the
payment. Similarly any charges or breakdown of charge (if applicable) shall also be informed to
the payer and payee before initiation of the transaction. Any discounts offered on a particular
payment instrument shall be disclosed to the payer thereof prior to the initiation of the payment
transaction. There are some derogation to information requirements for certain low-value
payment instruments and electronic money (less than €30).
Framework contract
contains the terms and
conditions and any other
information along with
their consequences, that
the payer and payee
must be aware for using
the payment service. The
contract should be
provided to the user, well
in advance and in a
language and format that
is easily understandable
to all participants
involved. All contractual
obligations on the usage
of a payment instrument
or conducting a payment
transaction should be
clearly laid out
transparently. PSPs
must provide their
geographical address
and details of relevant
supervisory authorities
and registry. It must also
outline the main
characteristics of the
services offered and
must contain the form
and procedure of
consent, to initiate a
payment order and for
execution/withdrawal
of a transaction. All
parties must also agree
to the language, means
of communication and
frequency, (including
the technical
requirements of the
user’s equipment and
software) that shall be
used for notification.
Procedures for
compensation must
also be clearly defined
according to the ADR
procedures defined
under title IV or any
national law. Changes
to interest rates and
exchange rates can be
applied without any
Key Points to Remember
PISPs must provide reference
of transaction to the payer’s
ASPSP
Unique transaction reference,
transaction amount, exchange
rate (if applicable), charges
and breakdown of charges (if
applicable) and date of the
transaction will be
communicated during various
stages of the payment order or
payment transaction
When not covered as part of
framework contract all these
information must be provided
before initiation of payment
transaction and immediately
after execution of transaction
Access to accounts are
enabled through API (XS2A)

notification. Any other
amendment to the
framework contract should
be notified to the partakers
involved.
Single payment
transactions advocates
on the information to be
provided to a user, on
individual payment
transactions, that are not
covered under any
framework contract
defined above. It appoints
member states to ensure
that such information is
available at each stage of
the payment transactions
like ‘before initiation’,
‘after initiation’, ‘on receipt
of payment order’, ‘after
execution of payment
transaction’ etc. Needless
to say ASPSPs, payer,
payee, PISPs and PSPs will
have to adhere to the terms
and conditions of the
payment service offered.
7. Title IV – Right and obligations in relation to the provision
and use of Payment Services
7
The procedure and obligations to capture information during authorisation and execution of a
payment transaction or the payment order is discussed in detail under this title. It also debates in
detail about data protection, operational and security risks, authentication protocols and ADR
procedures that need to be adopted during settlement of disputes. PSPs cannot charge users for
fulfilling its information obligations or corrective & preventive measures. Wherever charges are
applicable, it must be in line
with the actual costs involved. In
cases of low-value payments
(less than €30), some
obligations can be exempted.
A payment transaction will be
considered ‘authorised’ only if
the payer provides consent to
execute the payment
transaction. ASPSPs shall
confirm on the availability of
funds upon request, if the
payer’s account is accessible
online and if payer has given
explicit consent to respond to
such requests from a specific
PSP. However, ASPSPs shall not
block funds on the payer’s
payment account. PISPs can
initiate a transaction for the
payer to ASPSP, and shall never
hold the payer’s funds in
connection with the provision of
the service. They shall not
tamper with the data and use the
data for other business purpose
without the explicit consent or
authorisation of the user. PSPs can block or limit the amount usage on a payment instrument, but
should communicate justifiable reasons to the user while doing so. Furthermore, they shall
unblock or replace the payment instrument if the reason for blocking, no longer exists.
Unauthorised or incorrectly executed transactions shall be rectified if user notifies to the PSP and
no later than 13months of the debit date. It is the responsibility of the PSP to provide evidence of
Key Points to Remember
Authorisation and execution rules are applicable to
all stakeholders involved in the payment supply
chain
Member states must appoint competent
authorities for ensuring that PSPs have adequate
and effective procedures to address data
protection, operational and security concerns
PSPs or PISPs or ASPSPs are liable to compensate
the financial loss of payer in any event of
unauthorised transaction if proved.
Payer must notify PSP without any undue delay if
any unauthorised or fraudulent transaction is
executed
Personal data can be consumed during investigation
to prevent transaction fraud.
All stakeholders must follow strong customer
authentication and secure communication
standards
EBA along with ECB shall release set of guidelines
that must be adopted.
8. Title IV – Right and obligations in relation to the provision
and use of Payment Services

authentication and execution of payment transaction. If PISPs were involved then they are held
responsible. Information exchange must happen cordially between PSP and PISP. The payer is
liable to bear the loss up to a maximum of €50 in case of an unauthorised transaction. Within 10
business days of receiving a request for a refund, PSP shall either refund the full amount or
provide a justification to refuse the refund.
Funds can only be debited only after successful execution of a payment transaction. Receipt of
payment orders must be communicated immediately to the concerned participants involved in
the transaction. ASPSPs cannot revoke a transaction for which consent has been already provided
for initiation request. Fund transfers between Payer’s ASPSP, PSPs, PISPs and Payee’s ASPSP
must be immediate and without delay. Funds must be available within the end of next business
day and should be effective to the value-date of the payment transaction. It is the responsibility of
the PSP to communicate the unique reference identifier specification to the user. All
communications between parties must be secure and adhere to strong customer
authentication rules mandated by EBA. In cases where such procedures are not in place, the
PSP shall be liable for financial losses arising out of security breach. Wherever applicable, the
payer’s account shall be restored, as if the debit transaction has not happened in case of an
unauthorised or incorrect or late execution or non-execution of a transaction. Processing of
personal data shall be permitted by member states when necessary to safeguard the prevention,
investigation and detection of payment fraud.
Member states are delegated with the authority to ensure that payment service providers establish
and maintain appropriate risk mitigation measures, have in place effective incident management
procedures including the detection and classification of major operational and security incidents.
EBA in close cooperation with ECB shall issue guidelines with regard to the establishment,
implementation and monitoring of the security measures, including certification
processes by the 13th of July, 2017. These guidelines will be reviewed in any event at least
every 2 years. PSPs must ensure that competent authorities must be notified of a major
operational or security incident without undue delay.
Authentication may be applied whenever the payer (a) accesses its payment account online; (b)
initiates an electronic payment transaction; (c) carries out any action through a remote channel.
EBA shall issue technical standards which shall ensure that strong customer authentication is
established and that all communication within various parties are secure. They shall advice
member states to adopt common and open standards for API development which will be used to
communicate with each payment player.
9. Title V – Delegated acts and regulatory technical
standards
9
This title provides information about the powers of delegation and the scope of delegated tasks.
It also expresses the control of delegates by the Commission and procedures to revoke or grant
tasks. One of the key objectives of PSD2 is to ensure protection of consumer rights and measures
are taken, in order to accommodate it. There will be 5 RTS and 1 ITS which will be issued by EBA,
after close consultation with various stakeholders and the cooperation of ECB in the near future.
The power to adopt delegated acts is conferred on the Commission for an undetermined
period of time from 12th of January, 2016. The power can be revoked by the European Parliament
or by the Council. The decision to revoke delegation shall not affect the validity of any delegated
acts already in force.
The Commission shall provide a user-friendly electronic leaflet, listing in a clear and easily
comprehensible manner about ‘consumer rights under PSD2’ by 13th of January, 2018. PSPs
must ensure that the leaflet is available on their respective websites in an easily accessible manner.
Title VI – Final provisions
Various amendments to already circulated Directives in the previous years are mentioned. Any
change in the clauses or national law or Union law shall be communicated to the Commission.

The Revised Payment Service Directive promotes harmonised pricing among all member states
and prepares a level playing field for increased competition. It sets the stage for mergers,
acquisitions and collaborations with niche industry specialists and banks. Banks can provide more
value-added services through API’s or through networking with third party providers to improve
their line of sight in the business world and expand their geographical footprint. The Directive
does not compromise on consumer rights and security measures and articulates necessary
stakeholders to adopt advanced technological solutions. It endorses open-market principles,
transparency, and efficiency of services and coerces banks to think beyond the traditional thought
process and embrace change for the betterment of financial industry as a whole.
