Nexus: A Blueprint for Instant Cross-border Payments
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Nexus is a model for connecting multiple national payment systems into a cross-border platform that could enable international payments to happen as quickly as sending a text message.

The summary report addresses the challenges that would need to be overcome and explains how a bridging platform like Nexus could streamline the process of linking national systems. It makes recommendations for countries that are upgrading or rebuilding their payments technology to prepare for cross-border interoperability.
