昨天我在Twitter上看到一篇有关人民银行批准运通人民币结算业务的新闻,根据截图的文字找到了新闻。
查找过程中,有几个发现:
中国人民大学副教授、数字经济研究中心副主任程华对财新记者表示,连通公司拿到银联之后的第二张中国银行卡清算业务许可证,这不仅标志着银行卡清算市场迎来了新的竞争时代,美国运通持股50%的背景,也意味着外资银行卡组织正式进入了中国市场。

“We are pleased to be the first foreign company to receive this license. This approval represents an important step forward in our long-term growth strategy and is an historic moment, not only for American Express but for the continued growth and development of the payments industry in mainland China,” said Stephen J. Squeri, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of American Express. “We look forward to welcoming millions of new consumers, businesses and merchants in China to American Express, as well as continuing to enhance our support for our global customers when they travel to the region.”
