Sydney (PRWEB) September 16, 2008 - Edgar, Dunn & Company (EDC), a leading independent global financial services and payments consultancy, celebrated today three decades of serving the payments, banking and financial services industries.

The firm also facilitates industry Forums and Roundtables.
"EDC has built a 30-year track record helping companies across the payments value chain improve performance and expand beyond their home countries, moving into new markets to facilitate and participate in the global payments economy", said Lance Blockley, CEO, Edgar, Dunn & Company.

Recently, cross-border and global enterprise clients have been seeking EDC's advice on international expansion as well as major regulatory changes on the horizon. EDC's deep regulatory expertise helps clients realize strategic opportunities and minimize risk resulting from major regulatory initiatives such as the Single European Payments Area (SEPA) and the Payment Services Directive (PSD).
EDC is a leading innovator in consumer preference and market segmentation tools and analysis, such as the firm's Slice & Dice approach and its PaymentDynamicsSM research, helping issuers segment their portfolios across all consumer segments, payment types and rewards.
