Yesterday the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) hosted a forum – the second in its FinTech series – on peer-to-peer payment systems. Peer-to-peer payment systems are online services – often in the form of mobile apps – that allow consumers to share and/or send money electronically. These systems make it easier for consumers who may not carry cash to send and receive money from other people quickly.
The forum panel discussion was labeled: Peer-to-Peer Payments – Their Emergence and Path Ahead. Participating in the panel were the following individuals: Jo Ann Barefoot, Matt Van Buskirk, Beth Chun, Patrick Eagan-Van Meter, Brian Peters, Duane Pozza, and Christina Tetreault. Their bios and backgrounds can be found on the FTC website for the forum.
One might wonder why insideARM would be interested in this event. The answer is twofold, but it is also really quite simple.
