Today’s heightened geopolitical uncertainty (fragmentation, cyber risk, and macroeconomic volatility) is testing the resilience of the global payments system, which depends fundamentally on trust and security to function at scale.

This session explores how public authorities and the private sector can work together to preserve confidence, continuity, and cross-border connectivity through information-sharing, interoperable standards, and regulatory approaches that strengthen resilience without fragmenting the ecosystem. It also explores how Visa is innovating for resilience, including through offline solutions that safeguard transactions in low-connectivity or high-risk environments.

The discussion aims to highlight how security and fraud prevention are not peripheral issues but core pillars of payments resilience.
