Digital Transaction Platforms in Asia (2022–2026)

Abstract:
This project seeks to provide a comprehensive and authoritative account of the rapid shift towards digital payments in Asian economies. The study examines the technical and commercial organisation of the leading Asian transaction platforms. Our approach seeks to emphasise the significance of cultural diversity in Asian markets through detailed studies of everyday norms and practices in India , Indonesia, China, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam and the Philippines. A large scale analysis of market and user data seeks to illustrate key trends at scale and provide a regional knowledge base for assessing the implications for Australia, fostering multilateral collaboration and developing robust policy recommendations on the digital economy.
