Payment associations have market ordsprog

Payment associations have market power because they are owned and controlled by groups of banks.

[By going public and appointing a new board, with independent directors making up a majority, MasterCard may be trying to be viewed as more independent and to steer some potential litigation costs away from its member banks, said Kenneth Posner, an analyst with Morgan Stanley.] Payment associations have market power because they are owned and controlled by groups of banks, ...

We're not opposed to a cost-based interchange. The problem is the banks got greedy and raised the rates just to make more money. If interchange was actually cost-based, it would effectively disappear. In Australia, the interchange rate is less than half a percent. And Canada is a great example: Business is thriving even though the interchange rate is zero.

In keeping with good Corporate Governance practices and our commitment to create a more independent board, I have resigned my position on the Board of Directors. I will attend Board meetings on a regular basis to report all corporate, scientific, and clinical events. Dr. Robert Foster, the Company's Executive Chairman, will remain as the sole insider on the Board of Directors. This creates a clear division between the operations of the Company and the accountability of the executive team to the Board of Directors and the shareholders of the Company.

They controlled the talent. They controlled the directors. Everybody was under contract, and for the longest time there seemed to be a stifling of creativity underneath that system.

The Forum for Corporate Directors was founded in 1991 specifically to promote the highest standards of corporate ethics and best governance practices for board of directors of both public and privately held corporations and institutions, and this annual dinner program was created in the early 1990s to honor the best of the best among Orange County's outstanding community of corporate directors.

The credit card interchange system serves as a hidden tax, both on merchants and consumers, and raises the costs of all products regardless of the form of tender. And these credit card interchange fees have rapidly increased over the past several years, despite efforts by individual convenience stores to control these costs or make the competitive market work.

I do not think it is any benefit for artists or fans to have all the new, wide distribution channels in the online world controlled by those who have controlled the old, narrower ones, ... This is especially true if they achieve that control by leveraging their dominance in content or conduit space in an anticompetitive way to control the new, independent music services that are attempting to enhance the consumer's experience of music.

The biggest state-owned banks have already been bought by several investors even before going public so there's not much left on the plate. Investors will go for the smaller banks if they want to play a part in China's fast-growing financial industry.

The president made clear that he is politically interested in a strong dollar, not a weak one, ... It is clear that governments have limited possibilities for action. As you know, the central banks, which can act, are independent and we respect that.
