EXPLAIN IT CLEARLY KNOWLEDGE MADE EASY FOR EVERYONE UPI LED THE OFFENSIVE. NOW EUROPE IS JOINING THE FIGHT: VISA AND MASTERCARD FACE A NEW CHALLENGE From India's payment revolution to Europe's 130-million-user alliance, the battle to control the world's digital payment rails is changing. GLOBAL FINANCE  |  DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE  |  INDIA'S STRATEGIC FUTURE The next battle in global finance is not simply about moving money.

In 2025, the award went to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado. In 2026, it went to South African jurist Navi Pillay. Trump received neither honour.
