Episode 302 - Catching Up on the Capital Markets, with Timothy Chiodo, UBS

About a year ago, we chatted with with Tim Chiodo of UBS and Chris Kim of Capital Group about the investment side of payments. It’s been a pretty volatile 12-months in the equity market since then - well-timed for Bryan Derman to welcome Tim back on the podcast and catch up on the market factors playing into the payments space.  Listen in as they recap the performance of payments stocks, dive into the e-commerce market, provide perspective on the card networks, discuss merchant acquiring growth opportunities, and finish up with a lightning round on emerging technology.
