2006 UK Datamonitor Predictions

This is an estimate, from Datamonitor, of the amount of credit card transactions that is expected to take place in 2006.

This is not surprising compared to the statistic that Datamonitor released about the amount of UK residents with approximately £200,000 (US $342,000) in their bank accounts is supposed to rise to more than one million.
