China approves Visa to set up local clearing entity

Original: visa

China has given final approval for Visa to establish a bank card clearing entity in the country, ending a nine-year wait for the US payments giant. The move opens China's domestic payments market further to foreign firms, following earlier licences granted to rivals like Mastercard. Commentators see it as a signal of cautious market opening amid broader trade tensions.

Why now: The long-awaited regulatory approval marks a rare market opening for a US financial firm in China.
