The Association of Cyprus Electronic Money & Payment Institutions (ACEMPI) has announced its official membership as an associate member of the European Payments Council (EPC).
"The EPC is the main European body for payment-related matters, with a mission to develop policies, standards, and initiatives that ensure fast, secure, and efficient payments across Europe. Through our participation, we gain direct access to European developments and now play an active role in shaping the future of payments within the EU," a relevant ACEMPI announcement noted.
The Chairman of the Association, John Georgoulas, commented, "With this move, the value of our Association and the development of the sector in Cyprus is now recognised by our European partners. This is an important step that strengthens our voice at the European level and gives us the opportunity to contribute meaningfully to the industry's developments.”
"Our participation in the EPC is both a confirmation of our journey so far and a starting point for an even more active and meaningful role in the European payments ecosystem," the announcement concluded.
