2011 EIU Government E-Payments Adoption Ranking
I n a relatively short time, advances in technology and business models based on electronic platforms have enabled many governments to increase the efficiency and scope of their e-payment infrastructure. Submitting a tax return online, swiping an electronic card to pay for a bus journey or even, perhaps, receiving government health and/or social benefits directly in a bank account are now a way of life in many countries. The ability of governments to offer these services via electronic platforms benefits all parties in the form of reduced costs and increased access. Indeed, an effective, inclusive e-payments system has become the core of what is being termed the “transformational approach” to government. Effective and efficient systems are dependent on not only a strong technological infrastructure but also strong connectivity between government, citizens and businesses.
