The future of financial services depends on global connectivity

Session description:
In a rapidly changing world, how can we ensure the global financial ecosystem remains seamlessly interconnected? With forces of fragmentation – whether competition, geopolitical, or technological – intensifying, and new forms of value emerging, this question is more important than ever. Interoperability is key to ensuring that the wave of digitisation across the global payments industry achieves scale. We’ll look at how this can be achieved through collaboration and innovation with a global mindset.

Identity and digital identity – Reshaping cross-border ecosystems by unleashing the value of the Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) and verifiable LEI (vLEI) by Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF)

Session description:
The need to harmonize cross-border trust services continues to grow in line with the ever-increasing volume of trade and commerce taking place globally across digital platforms. In this effort, The Financial Stability Board (FSB) has endorsed the LEI to support the goals of its G20-endorsed Roadmap for Enhancing Cross-Border Payments while the International Chamber Of Commerce (ICC) is supporting the adoption of LEI for supply chain.

In this session, the CEO of the Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF) Alexandre Kech will look back at the 10 years journey of GLEIF and the LEI’s value in different aspects of cross-border business.

Alexandre will also introduce the strategies of the foundation for the following decade and discuss with industry experts on how the LEI and verifiable LEI (vLEI) could help enhancing trust and transparency among entities involved in cross-border trade and transactions.

Big Issue Debate: As ISO 20022 reshapes payments, how can providers reshape themselves?

Session description:
From silent films to “talkies.” From black and white to colour TV. From flip phones to smart phones. From MT to ISO 20022. Like other major changes, the move to ISO 20022 is much more than a technology shift. It reshapes the entire payments landscape and opens opportunities for payment providers to redefine their value proposition. More frictionless operational and financial crime compliance processes are just the tip of the iceberg. The big question is how can providers use the rich, structured data to develop innovative, useful and sticky new services for customers – and what will happen if they don’t?
