Visa, Inc. Analyst Notes
On March 7, 2014, Visa, Inc. (Visa) announced that the Company, along with MasterCard, announced the formation of a new cross-industry group focused on enhancing payment system security to keep pace with the expectations of consumers, retailers and financial institutions. According to Visa, the group will initially focus on the adoption of EMV chip technology in the US, along with addressing other security-related topics, including tokenization, point-to-point encryption, and broader needs of the region. Ryan McInerney, President, Visa, stated, "The recent high-profile breaches have served as a catalyst for much needed collaboration between the retail and financial services industry on the issue of payment security. As we have long said, no one industry or technology can solve the issue of payment system fraud on its own.
