What are the pillars of MasterCard’s business strategy?
We have three verticals or pillars of strategy. The first is “Grow”, which is how we grow the core of our business, that is, our core products — debit, credit, prepaid and commercial. We focus on the things that really generate revenue and which allow us to invest in different parts of the business. The second part is what we call “Diversify”, in which we look at new markets that we want to operate in or new segments of operations. And the third part of the business strategy is what we call “Build”, which is building new businesses for the future including our consulting business or our day-to-day businesses. So these are the three core elements of our business strategy.
