“One year ago, as the pandemic threw communities and the wider global economy into turmoil, BCG’s payments modeling suggested that revenue growth could drop by nearly half—from a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9% from 2015 to 2019 to just over 4% going forward. But even though transaction volumes globally dipped in the early months of the crisis, a combination of government stimulus and the rapid recovery of major markets such as the US and China prevented a major decline from occurring. Overall, payments revenues globally declined only marginally in percentage terms from 2019 to 2020 and stayed at roughly $1.5 trillion year on year” – BCG Global Payments Report 2021, p.2.
