We offer the April 1997 report of the G-10 countries*
"Electronic Money."
http://jya.com/g10emoney.htm (121K)
This is a survey of the electronic payments systems
of the ten countries, and the status and prospects
in each for policy, law enforcement, privacy and related
issues.
The report is by a Working Party set up after the Lyon
conference in June 1996 to examine three policy areas:
(1) consumer issues;
(2) law enforcement issues; and
(3) supervisory issues
It was presented at a G-10 conference in DC on April 28
and publically released in the US on May 7 by the Treasury
Department.
* Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan,
Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom
and the United States.
