The Financial Stability Board (FSB)  published a letter to the G20 from the FSB Chair, Randal K. Quarles, welcoming the report published by the Committee on Payments and Market Infrastructures (CPMI), which sets out building blocks for a roadmap to enhance cross-border payments.

The publication of the CPMI report marks the second of a three-stage process to develop a roadmap to enhance cross-border payments. It sets out the necessary elements to address the challenges of high costs, low speed, limited access and insufficient transparency of cross-border payments, highlighted by the first-stage FSB report published in April.  We anticipate the FSB to publish a roadmap as a third and final stage. .
