At Gijs Boudewijn’s memorable farewell on May 15, he handed over the wand to me, both literally and figuratively. Over the past few weeks, I had the opportunity to meet many of our members and stakeholders. Amongst others, I could explain the latest developments in collective payments to the four largest municipalities in our country. During Money20\/20, I spoke to many domestic and foreign payment experts during a breakfast session. That same morning, I was on stage alongside various Dutch public transport representatives at the German public transport conference by Kontiki e.V. in Amsterdam. Everywhere I go, I notice that payments are hot. This well-stocked 33rd Betaaljournaal<\/em> is further proof of that.<\/p>\n

The Netherlands is at the forefront in terms of security, efficiency, accessibility, and reliability of collective payments. Geopolitical, technological, and other developments ask for continued close collaboration with all participants in the payment system to secure this position.<\/p>\n

I wish everyone a sunny and pleasant summer and I look forward to introducing the next Betaaljournaal<\/em> after our vacations.<\/p>\n
