George Goodyer explores the friction-filled edges of modern finance, focusing on the gap between high-speed global payment infrastructure and the slower, messier realities faced by people on the ground. His work looks past the glossy promise of instant transfers to examine what actually happens at the “last mile,” where money meets cash, agents, queues and local regulations.

By reading George’s stories, you can expect clear, grounded reporting on how cross-border payments really work, who benefits, and who is left waiting. His writing is particularly valuable if you want to understand why faster rails alone don’t guarantee better outcomes for recipients, and what needs to change for financial technology to translate into everyday convenience and security.
