Money transfer market could be hit hard by Proposed EU Payment Services Directive
Says IAMTN CEO Olga Maitland
“The consequence of this will prove costly to the money transfer operators and banks let alone the remittance sender who can least afford it.
“These directives apply to every transaction from Europe to anywhere in the world. Everyone in every country, no matter how poor, will bear the cost of red tape and bureaucracy “

The proposed EU Payment Services Directive in trying to address money laundering and provide legal clarity in money transfers will make unfair demands on the money transfer sector creating legal tangles which can only benefit lawyers.

Speakers:
Nick Dunlop, Commercial Director, Earthport plc
John Burns, APACS
Shona Ferrier, APACS
David Coates, British Bankers Association
Nicholas Louis, Baltic International Bank
