Top Trends By Fortune May 20, 2021

Fortune magazine interviews Western Union Executive Vice President and CFO Raj Agrawal in a story about the acceleration to digital during the pandemic.

“We saw more growth last year in our digital business than we ever have before,” Agrawal told the magazine of Western Union’s continued growth.

According to Fortune, Western Union’s familiarity with cross-border regulatory requirements worldwide and its global network of retail agents can assist individuals, banks, and fintech companies alike as many continue to shift their financial habits amid the pandemic.

“People are typically using their banks to move money around the world [but] we really believe that we can be the white-label provider or branded partner to these banks to give them a turnkey solution to move money from one country to another,” Agrawal added.
