The challenge for it is in the public markets, and V/MC wanting to manage share price based on analysts often short-term views. That constrains the, I think, but they are smart and can see what lies ahead. But the merchant-network relationship is fraught, and it will take quite some time to improve.

At the heart of this is interchange, and if that can issue can be diffused, V/MC can focus on the value they deliver as networks, and issuers on value they deliver to consumers, and we’ll have a better market in payments.
