Top 20 studies on why cash matters for 2020 (2/2)
Feb 25, 2020
With all the misinformation running amok in the digital age, it's no surprise that reports on the death of cash have been greatly exaggerated. As we have seen, time and time again, cash is not only alive, it is thriving, and is being viewed more and more as a fundamental social good.
For our three-year anniversary this 2020, we have compiled a list of 20 studies that have enriched the global cash debate with insights on why cash matters (see part one here). We applaud the research presented within each of these reports for informing policies on payments with their many arguments for keeping cash.
