Canada and EU plan to link next-generation payment systems
Original: Canada, EU plan to link next-gen payment systems
Canada and the European Union have announced plans to connect their next-generation payment systems, according to a joint statement reported by The Globe and Mail. The move would tie Canada's emerging real-time payment infrastructure to the EU's equivalent, aiming to enable faster, cheaper cross-border transactions and reduce reliance on dominant foreign card networks.
Why now: The announcement signals a deepening of Canada-EU economic cooperation and interest in bypassing US-controlled payment rails amid ongoing trade tensions.
