      KPMG Law payment services

      Navigating the evolving payments landscape

      Payments, including cross border payments, play a central role in international commerce. We have an experienced and capable payments legal and regulatory team that works with payment consulting, tax, financial crime and digital consulting colleagues to provide a comprehensive service.

      The payments landscape is changing rapidly, with changes such as ISO 20022 migration, new payments architecture, open banking and CBDC among others. With focus turning to stablecoins and digital assets, inevitably the focus turns to fraud. In the UK, The Payment Systems Regulator (PSR) is introducing a mandatory reimbursement scheme for victims of authorised push payment (APP) fraud from 7 October 2024.
