Mastercard<\/em> en Russie, dans le cadre des sanctions antirusses suivant la crise ukrainienne. (On a dit que ces mesures de restriction n’auraient \u00e9t\u00e9 que temporaires, ce qui reste incertain, et ce qui t\u00e9moigne surtout de la confusion de la politique de sanction, entre directives officielles incertaines, mesures priv\u00e9es avec des intentions commerciales cach\u00e9es, etc., l’ensemble faisant un autre signe de l’obsolescence des USA.) Young met en \u00e9vidence l’avantage paradoxal qu’implique la d\u00e9cision de Poutine selon laquelle la Russie doit cr\u00e9er ses propres cartes de cr\u00e9dit et abandonner le circuit US \u00e0 pr\u00e9tention globale. Les remarques de Young aboutissent \u00e0 trois constats : 1) les d\u00e9cisions US de sanctions vont contre la globalisation qui constitue la politique US officielle ; 2) les syst\u00e8mes cr\u00e9\u00e9s par les Russes \u00e0 cette occasion seront notablement plus performants que ceux des USA (du bloc BAO) ; 3) dans l’\u00e8re de la globalisation, les initiatives r\u00e9gionales de petites dimensions sont destin\u00e9es \u00e0 prendre l’avantage sur les monstres con\u00e7us par les USA pour dominer le monde et en cours de transformation en \u00e9normes usines \u00e0 gaz… En bref : au lieu d’essayer de dominer le monde, l’usine \u00e0 gaz US ferait bien de tenter de fonctionner chez elle.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00ab… However, for those who want to pout about problems rather than resolve them, the US President has uniquely undermined globalization. Faced with a lack of payment systems, Russia looks likely to create its own standard. Will it rival Visa or MasterCard worldwide? That’s not the point. New digital networks are faster, cheaper and more efficient than the legacy systems. Thus thanks to Obama’s progressive’ sanctions fetish, Russia can deliver an innate national advantage, optimizing cheaper, faster technology to deliver speedier solutions to Russian citizens and merchants, which ought to enable even micropayments which the American legacy cards cannot manage due to their less flexible, analogue architecture.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbThose who don’t believe a Russian solution can be more flexible than American plastic ought to recall that recently, in order to attract more Western investors, the Moscow Exchange had to change its settlement period from same day (T+0) to a two day window (T+2) because the Western banking system can’t cope with a real time world! America is still playing the analogue globalization 1.0 playbook while we have moved into a digital world. In this sense Obama’s Camelot has not progressed from JFK’s 50 years ago.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbToday’s world is driven by a completely different undercurrent of growth and development than the mega corporate agenda beholden to US government and indeed the EU. Rather, the power of progress is with smaller units, thanks to nanotechnology, 3D printing and the inherent power of digital to produce faster and cheaper than ever before. This undermines the strength of the big bloc and allows solutions to be created at a smaller level. So now Russia can develop a digital card payment system and if the US doesn’t want to partake, then Russia can easily interface with similar national systems in China and dozens of other nations.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbNot only has President Obama misunderstood the direction of world development, the US is deliberately exposing itself to global obsolescence. America is free to trade (or not) globally, but its strength in withholding access to products is increasingly eroded by the ability for smaller blocs to achieve remarkable scale rapidly.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbWelcome to the digital world, where small is beautiful and regions can achieve scale through cooperation within months which previously took decades in the analogue era. Inclusive globalization is clearly under threat.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
