SEPA Instant has existed since 2017, but why has uptake been slow? 🐌 Because adoption was optional and fragmented. The Instant Payments Regulation (IPR) changes that. By mandating universal availability, fee parity and 24/7 execution within ten seconds, instant payments become the default. 🏃➡️ Tristan Kirchner, CEO of ClearBank Europe, explores the key findings of our latest research, 'SEPA Instant: Build it and they will come', around market readiness and where the biggest challenges remain, in this article: https://lnkd.in/e4sbtj9P
