Fed holds online panel today on faster-payments initiative

During the broadcast, industry leaders will share their perspectives on the benefits of a faster payments system for businesses and consumers, as well as steps the industry can take to build momentum toward a faster, safer, more ubiquitous payment system in the U.S.

NAFCU will monitor the online discussion. This event will be broadcast live from the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, streamed via FedPaymentsImprovement.org to audiences worldwide, the group said. (Read more here.)
