InsightsWe use information to better understand the world around us and to help individuals and communities make better decisions.

At MasterCard, we understand that insightful information helps make intelligent decisions. As a company, we are able to determine the latest trends that drive global commerce by conducting cutting-edge research and analyzing aggregate data and macro economic trends. Our information helps us gain insights into market dynamics such as financial inclusion levels across multiple markets. We also drive thought leadership through the MasterCard Economic Forum, where we bring together key constituents from business and academia to share findings on payment and economic trends. In addition, MasterCard Insights, SpendingPulse, and our Survey on Ethical Spending are just some of the many examples of information that help decision makers better understand the economic landscape.
