Key Insights from the Cross-Border Payments Analysis Report

Market Overview

The cross-border payments market, which encompasses both wholesale and retail transactions, is projected to grow significantly. International payment flows are expected to reach $290 trillion by 2030.

Revenues from cross-border payments totalled $193.3 billion in 2023, with wholesale and retail B2B payments constituting the majority.

Industry Challenges and Solutions

The traditional correspondent banking system, plagued by inefficiencies, high costs, and slow speeds, remains a significant obstacle.
Innovations in financial networks, blockchain technology, and the adoption of ISO 20022 are streamlining cross-border payment processes, enhancing interoperability, and reducing costs.

CEO Dwight Willis’s Insights

In an exclusive interview for the report, DSGPay’s CEO and Director, Dwight Willis, shared his perspective on the complexities and competitive advantages of obtaining regulatory licenses.

“It’s the length of time, the effort, and the cost that goes into applying for licenses that makes obtaining them so difficult and complex,” Willis stated. “If you want to obtain one in some of the leading countries, you’re looking at potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars in spending for resources like consultants, lawyers, and accountants. And requirements coming from regulators and payment organizations are becoming more complex. The regulators want to see from you that you can run the business, adhere to local rules and regulations, and you’re not going to be a risk to their systems. To justify all the license costs, you need to have the volume and scale.”

Industry Outlook

The report also underscores the potential of disruptive technologies and the significant role of established financial players like Visa and Mastercard in the cross-border payments space. As the industry continues to evolve, companies that can navigate regulatory landscapes and leverage innovative technologies will be well-positioned for success.
