SUMMARY

Settlements, payment and trading systems are crucial mechanisms enabling financial institutions and all other economic agents to participate in a market economy. Rapid innovation is transforming the way in which payments are made, trades executed and settlements finalised.
Comment: SPEED will seek to bring the viewpoints of users, providers and regulators into closer contact, especially on key policy issues.
Reports: SPEED will meet the growing need for a dialogue between the official sector, banks, system operators, and users, notably major corporates.
Analysis: SPEED will be a key source to keep readers informed on the policy issues involved and the thinking of policymakers.

SPEED is published four times a year: January, April, July, October.

  QUOTES

"Payments and settlement systems provide the essential infrastructure for all markets. It is good that Central Banking Publications is now launching a new Journal focussing on this underappreciated subject. Much is happening, especially as a result of technology, and the field needs a practical, policy-oriented record and analysis of developments."
Professor Charles Goodhart, Financial Markets group, London School of Economics, and former member of the Bank of England's monetary policy committee
