Limited network etc.

What is about to change following the BaFin explanatory leaflet to the ZAG? Is there any news on the exemptions limited network and limited product range in the ZAG? What impact are the new changes going to have in practice – and who is in the position to embrace these changes and who not so much? I had a chat about these questions and many other things with Dr. Hugo Godschalk at the PVD Prapaid Congress.

Born in the Netherlands, he has been managing partner at the management consultancy PaySys Consultancy GmbH in Frankfurt am Main since 1993. On top of that he has been representing the Prepaid Verband Deutschland (PVD e.V.) as managing director since 2013.
