ETA US Economic Indicators Released |
|
The latest edition of ETA's U.S. Economic Indicators Report has been released and is now available for reading/download by ETA members. According to the introduction to the report: Though the growth rate multiple of bankcard volumes to total consumer spending and spending on non-durable goods has slowed in recent quarters, the percentage share of bankcard volumes to these two spending measures illustrates that there is still a significant market opportunity for card based payment growth and other emerging consumer payment methodologies. Total spending on non-durable goods in Q3 2011 for example was $1.15 trillion. Bankcard volumes were only 30% of this amount meaning that nearly $805 billion in non-durable goods purchases were made using competing (non-card based) payment methods.
The US Economic Indicators Report is published quarterly with analyisis from The Strawhecker Group, for the benefit of ETA member companies. |
