Ugo Bechis, EAPS

[Dave Birch] Ugo Bechis is the head of SEPA payments at UBI Banca and the chairman of the board of the Euro Alliance of Payment Schemes (EAPS). This is a pan-European debit card "scheme of schemes" that aims, rather like Monnet and Payfair, to be the European Commission's desired "third scheme" for debit cards across the eurozone. In this podcast Ugo explains the rationale behind EAPS and talks about the future of European payments.
