Visa Card Sees Potential In Hungary, Says CEO Hogg
Hungary is a perfect market for growth for Visa, CEO Charlotte Hogg of the credit card company’s European operations told Portfolio in an interview.

There is a comprehensive change in the behaviour of consumers, she observed, with a transition to the mobile and digital world, while the regulatory framework is also changing.

Hungary has advanced regulations especially on client identification and open banking, Hogg remarked.
