Dear Valued Member,
As 2021 races to the finishing line, attention inevitably shifts towards plans to take the industry forward in 2022. At the same time, we give thanks for what is turning into an unexpectedly strong year both for ATMIA and for ATMs. The outlines of a post-pandemic world have emerged, and we are gaining insight into what the “new normal” world will look like. The key point is that the ATM is in a good space to make the most of this “new normal”, since our pre-eminent self-service device is phygital by its very nature, bridging the physical world of bricks, mortar and cash and the digital and online reality. The new API App model for ATMs, now live, with companies like NCR and fintechs like KLEAR Technologies already certified as Next Gen future-ready, will connect ATMs to the mobile-digital world in readiness for the Internet of Things. I now see the future for ATMs as having the strongest prospects for success and innovation since I began working in the industry just over twenty years ago. The publicly available set of vendor-agnostic standards and specifications may be viewed in our Next Gen Implementation Guide.
At the same time, the ATM industry is now becoming more protected than ever before. ATMIA runs the ATM Security Association (ASA) and we are enormously proud of the industry’s first-ever global-scale crime and fraud database, called the Crisis and Crime Management System, or CCMIS for short. This system has already recorded 1,478 intelligence reports, representing 5,600 incidents internationally. This data allows us to analyse global trends in methods of attack so we can strengthen our defences and deploy our set of international ATM security best practices. It is a powerful tool and I am delighted to announce that next year we have budgeted to develop crime intelligence reports for ASA. At the same time, law enforcement agencies have started inputting data and we offer them free access to the system so the industry can work closely together with law enforcement to tackle ATM crime and ATM criminals and fraudsters.
And so, following two years of tough impacts of the pandemic, I am happy to share the good news with you that our industry’s prospects have never been better. I predict waves of innovation on the back of the new API App ecosystem for ATMs and greater defences against crime than ever before.
I would like to thank you, our treasured members, for tremendous support during 2021, a year in which we broke all records for advocacy donations to help us continue to implement our popular, member-based ATM and Cash Revival Plan. It is an honour to serve such a proud industry. We ask our members to provide their valuable feedback for our short annual member survey to ensure we continue to stay attuned to our members’ needs and requirements. Please take this short survey here.
Let’s end this extraordinary year safely and strongly!
