This year’s survey proves particularly interesting as the impact of mobile and payments apps are clearly indicating a rapid cycle change in the industry, with most developed markets rapidly adapting to mobile real-time payments and established players facing real disintermediation threats.
      
    
    
      
	 
	The results  of this year’s survey build upon the past three annual surveys, and show that:
	- 
		
			Regulation and innovation remain the two primary drivers of industry change 
- 
		
			Innovation through technology is now seen as being far more important to long-term industry structure than regulatory drivers  
- 
		
			There are much stronger opinions about the likely future scenarios in the industry, with mobile payments leading to disruptive innovation and new entrants such as Google and Apple  
- 
		
			Mobile is now seen as mainstream and the blockchain and cryptocurrencies are the ‘new disruptive kids on the block’
