Payments Dominate Australian Transaction Banking
By contrast only a third, 35.2 percent, of Corporates use Cross Boarder Payments products, although this engagement is growing rapidly as bank offerings become increasingly accessible and more richly featured. This is also a product market where primary providers hold a much more modest 35.2 percent of the average Corporate’s Cross Boarder Payments wallet and considerably greater multi-banking by customers is done.
Domestic Payments is dominated by the Big Four Australian commercial banks, holding a collective 80.6 percent of all primary banking relationships. HSBC is the largest non-domestic player.

East & Partners’ Client Service Head, Amy Nixon commented "The payments industry
globally is undergoing major transformation, with new players and innovators
looking to carve out roles and revenue. Changing technologies, especially access
and mobile, globalisation of payments models, increasing demand for more
functionality from consumers and corporate alike and regulators looking to drive
innovation and security are all adding to an enormous refocussing on Payments by
banks."
"An ageing infrastructure, including Australia, requiring major investments by
the banks is making Payments, both Domestic and Cross Border, the new
opportunity market for commercial banking," Ms Nixon added.
