Yesterday we officially launched The Payments Manifesto 2026 "Making hashtag#Britain a hashtag#PaymentsPowerhouse", written by our 8 Policy Working Groups. Our members came together to see the fruit of their work alongside the Economic Secretary to the Treasury, Lucy Rigby KC MP. She highlighted the importance of innovation in payments, with particular focus to hashtag#inclusion, hashtag#stablecoins and hashtag#economicgrowth. We are thrilled to see the government progressing on delivering hashtag#paymentsinnovation, hashtag#infrastructure renewal, hashtag#resilience and serious hashtag#openness to the markets of the future.
