Latin America is rapidly emerging as one of the world’s most dynamic digital payments markets but fragmented infrastructure, legacy systems and differing regulations continue to challenge cross-border growth. In a recent contribution to Trade Finance Global (TFG), our CEO Radi El Haj shares his perspective on how integrated payments infrastructure can help unlock the region’s full economic and trade potential. From interoperability and scalable processing platforms to blockchain innovation and stablecoins, the discussion explores what financial institutions across LatAm need to modernise, scale and compete globally. 👉 Read the full piece online: https://lnkd.in/dUKbvnVG #RS2 #Payments #Fintech #DigitalPayments #TradeFinance #LatinAmerica #CrossBorderPayments #BankingTechnology #FinancialServices

Digital wallets are fast becoming the gatekeepers of how consumers initiate and control payments but the real story is happening far beyond the wallet interface. Our CEO, Radi El Haj, recently contributed a thought leadership piece to TechRadar Pro exploring why digital wallets can’t scale without modern payment rails and why the most important shifts in payments are taking place deep within the infrastructure layer. In the article, Radi highlights how the industry is moving from a single-rail world to a multi-rail ecosystem, where cards, account-to-account (A2A) payments, real-time payment systems and local schemes coexist. In this environment, the challenge is no longer simply enabling payments, but intelligently orchestrating them. This shift also redefines settlement and payment economics, turning both into strategic variables rather than back-office functions. At RS2, we see this evolution as a fundamental re-architecture of the payments stack: where intelligence, routing and infrastructure converge to power the next generation of global commerce. 👉 Read the full piece here - https://lnkd.in/dbSPuCer #RS2 #DigitalWallets #PaymentsInnovation #PaymentsInfrastructure #RealTimePayments #FutureOfPayments

As concerns grow around the latest advances in artificial intelligence, the financial sector is facing a new wave of cybersecurity risk. Recent developments surrounding Anthropic’s “Claude Mythos” AI model have sparked discussions at the highest levels - with the Bank of England reportedly preparing crisis talks with major lenders on the potential impact to global financial stability. In coverage by the Daily Mail and This Is Money, our CEO Radi El Haj shared his perspective on the risks facing banks, particularly the continued reliance on legacy infrastructure such as COBOL systems, which still process the majority of financial transactions worldwide. As Radi notes, the challenge isn’t just the emergence of more advanced AI tools - it’s the difficulty of modernising decades-old systems that underpin critical financial services. This highlights the urgent need for the industry to strengthen resilience, modernise infrastructure and stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated threats.

The payments industry is entering a new phase - where growth alone is no longer enough. Increasingly, success is being defined by sustainable, scalable profitability, with metrics such as active users, spend per user and take rates taking centre stage as companies refine how they balance innovation with strong underlying economics. At the same time, greater independence in issuing capabilities, combined with modular and configurable infrastructure, is reshaping how financial services providers compete across Europe’s highly regulated payments ecosystem. Our CEO, Radi El Haj, recently spoke with Investing.com about how we’re approaching this shift at RS2 and how we’re measuring the performance of our card issuing capabilities over the next 12–24 months as we continue to scale Beyond by RS2.
