Mester, Loretta J. (2000-03)
Traditional forms of payment, such as currency, coin, and paper checks, are quickly being eclipsed by electronic forms, such as payments made by ATM, credit card, or automated clearing house. More recently, smart cards, debit cards, and PC banking have joined this electronic army of new ways to make payments.

Labor market anxiety and the downward trend in the job separation rate
