Why it matters

The approval opens a vast market for Visa, potentially adding billions in transaction volume and revenue. It signals regulatory confidence and could accelerate Visa’s expansion strategy in Asia. The move may also shift competitive dynamics with local payment providers.

Short-term and longer-term
