On October 21, the payment network Visa announced three capabilities aimed at the growth of commercial cards, the security of virtual cards, and the automation of commercial payments in San Francisco, serving financial institutions, fintech companies, and enterprises. Darren Parslow, Global Head of Visa Commercial Solutions, stated that companies are accelerating the automation of payment-related tasks from identifying vendor opportunities to approving invoices and executing transactions. These capabilities are designed to provide the necessary data, security, and control.The three capabilities are SESA 2.0, Visa Commercial Fraud Solutions, and a live pilot conducted with the billing platform BILL and the accounts receivable platform Billtrust. SESA 2.0 combines AI vendor scoring, Visa commercial payment data, buyer benchmarks, and business value modeling to help identify vendors more likely to accept commercial cards and estimate growth opportunities. Visa claims that since its launch, SESA has helped financial institutions discover over $600 billion in potential cardable spending.Visa Commercial Fraud Solutions covers vendor verification, authenticating commercial virtual card users through 3-D Secure, and transaction-level controls such as spending, merchant category, location, and time. Payment controls have already been provided to eligible issuing institutions in supported countries and regions, while the other two are currently in pilot and are planned for full rollout in 2027. Visa also stated that the pilot with BILL and Billtrust has gone live, allowing trusted AI agents to initiate and assist in completing approved invoice payments through the vendor portal, using tokenized payment credentials without relying on shared vendor portal login credentials.

According to a report by Reuters, the Bank of Korea warned that if large American technology companies slow down their capital expenditures in the field of artificial intelligence next year, South Korea's semiconductor exports could decrease by $50 billion to $100 billion compared to previous forecasts. The Bank of Korea simulated this scenario in a written response submitted to National Assembly member Ahn Doo-hyeon, assuming a 10% drop in the unit price of South Korean semiconductor products.In this scenario, South Korea's GDP growth rate in 2027 would be reduced by about 0.4 percentage points, and the current account surplus would be far below the previously estimated $430 billion. South Korea's chip exports account for about half of the country's total exports. Capital expenditures by Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Meta, and Oracle are expected to increase from $40 billion last year to $80 billion this year, reaching $110 billion next year.The Bank of Korea pointed out that there is still significant uncertainty regarding AI demand trends and the cycle of the memory chip industry. If technology giants cut back on investments in AI infrastructure, South Korea's chip exports and overall economic growth could be impacted.
