Independent and not-for-profit

We're owned by no single bank. Our independence allows us to act in the interest of the whole UK economy and the millions of people and businesses that rely on it every day.

Board and committees

A diverse Board of executive and non-executive directors sets our strategy. Specialist committees oversee risk, audit, technology, end-user advice and participant experience.

Executive leadership

Our Executive Committee runs the business day-to-day, bringing decades of experience across payments, technology, regulation and consumer protection.

Working with the industry

We collaborate closely with banks, building societies, payment service providers, regulators and Government to keep the UK at the forefront of safe, modern payments.
