About this listen
In this new episode of The Cash News Podcast, Tom, Shaun, and Brad take a step back from the U.S. and European lens to explore what’s really happening with cash around the world.
While digital payments continue to expand, much of the developing world is seeing continued growth in cash usage, not decline. From Africa and Latin America to parts of Asia, cash remains essential for everyday transactions, creating new challenges around infrastructure, vault capacity, currency production, and logistics.
The team discusses why volume matters more than value when it comes to cash, the realities of deploying digital payment systems in cash-intensive economies, and why education, trust, and infrastructure are often the biggest barriers to adoption. They also explore real-world examples of what works, what doesn’t, and why there is no one-size-fits-all solution for the future of payments.
A timely conversation on resilience, inclusion, and the evolving global cash ecosystem.
