fiscal 2014. These numbers
are astounding. Our model
of working through partners
has worked and continues to
work exceptionally well, and
has helped us achieve our
significant growth and scale.
While we are proud of our
success, we believe the
opportunities in front of
us are even greater than
what we have already
seen. Opportunities exist
everywhere we do business
and across all of our products.
We come to work every day
pursuing these opportunities
and believe that rigorous focus
on clear goals will enable us
to drive growth and achieve
continued success as the
premier global payments
company.
Our six goals are:
1. Evolve our client interactions
to even deeper partnerships
with financial institutions,
merchants, and new
industry partners
2. Transform Visa’s technology
assets to drive efficiency and
enable innovation
3. Achieve success as a leading
partner for digital payments
comparable to what we
have achieved in the
physical world
4. Expand access to Visa
products and services
globally
5. Champion payment system
security for the industry
6. Be the employer of choice
for top talent
Partnerships
Client relationships have
always been important at Visa,
but given how the world has
changed, we need to do even
more to be the payments
partner of choice.
We were built in partnership
with the financial institutions
to create an electronic
payment acceptance mark
and a processing environment
capable of significantly
broader scale than was
possible by any individual
bank. We are different than
consumer product companies
in that historically the financial
institutions, not Visa, defined
and controlled the product
proposition to the consumer.
This has been purposeful and
we have benefited through
financial institution product
competition which has
resulted in more innovation.
While we are proud of our success, we believe the
opportunities in front of us are even greater than
what we have already seen.
