Mobile Banking Updates - Mar 7

How do banks and operators feel about mobile banking?
"There’s a definite different between mobile payments and mobile banking. Mobile payments are all about the secure transfer of money across mobile channels (don’t let my one sentence description there fool you - it’s a hideously complex and necessary service). But mobile banking is about offering full banking and financial services to people over their mobile phone. Early forms of this were focused on SMS notifications - banks would send you a text when certain things happened to your account (bills paid, large amounts taken out or put into an account, etc). But what a lot of people including myself have found is that we want complete control of our bank account from our mobiles."
