(MNI) WASHINGTON
The Federal Reserve Wednesday said it will launch a real-time payment system in July, with expectations that more features and enhancements will be added in future releases to continue supporting safety, resiliency and innovation in the industry as the network expands in the coming years.
The Fed will begin the formal certification process for participants in the first week of April.
