The UK's Payment Systems Regulator (PSR) has set out a five-year strategic plan focused on protecting users and promoting competition in the sector.
            
            
	The plan focuses on four strategic priorities for the next five years:
    - Ensure users have continued access to the payment services they rely on and support a choice of payment options.
 
    - Ensure users are sufficiently protected when using the UK's payment systems.
 
    - Promote competition between UK payment systems and the markets supported by them; protecting users where that competition is not sufficient.
 
    - Act to ensure the interbank systems provide the infrastructure, rules and incentives that foster innovation and competition in payments.
