Mobile commerce, mobile banking and mobile payments will have more impact than converged services, next generation networks or Long Term Evolution, a survey of 137 global service provider executives suggests.

Billing and security issues also will increase, and those also are issues revenue assurance personnel would be acutely aware of.
