Finance committee Well, I can't speak for the credit unions—

Finance committee Certainly we watch them, but I don't want to speak on their behalf. They were involved in the development of the mobile reference model, along with banks, to try to come up with a harmonized guideline around mobile wallets, but I don't know what sorts of offerings they've come ou

Finance committee If I'm making a mobile payment and I choose to take my credit card and my credentials and load them onto my mobile phone and make a transaction using my mobile phone and NFC technology, that is treated the same way as if I'm making it with my card. The zero liability still applie

Darren Hannah

Finance committee I don't have it with me, but we have some data on the CBA website and we can make that available to the committee.

Darren Hannah
Finance committee I'll start by saying that I think there has already been some questioning in prior discussions about the relationship between the merchant and the acquirers. I'm not going to go over that ground. You've covered that. As you mentioned, there are a number of competitors in that m
