An exclusive forum bringing top banking and finance professionals, leaders in technology and fintech innovators together to debate the expansion of Open Banking in the UAE & MENA and the opportunities it will bring for customers and clients, for banks and financial institutions and for widening inclusion and improving economies.
Open Banking – We are living during a time where the day-to-day routines of banking and making payments are changing before our eyes at an increasingly frequent rate. Whereas just a few years back, withdrawing cash, exchanging currency, paying into your accounts or settling your bills were carried out at specific locations and by long-standing, time-consuming processes, such as writing cheques, we now think nothing of making payments, transfers and purchases at any location or time of day using our smartphones.
This great convenience and utility that we now take for granted can only have happened as a result of determined collaboration between key parties including banks, technology companies, fintech businesses and regulators. The moves made to cooperate for the wider good are a commendable show of collective partnership that is equally matched by the imagination, innovation and ambition for improvement in our regional financial services markets.
The GSS and MEA Finance, Open Banking and Beyond Summit 2024, will gather national and regional leaders in Banking, Finance and Technology for lively and highly topical panel debates about what is driving Open Banking, the opportunities it is providing in the UAE and MENA, the advent of Banking As A Service and Embedded Finance, the trends that are forming and the shape of the tasks ahead to future-proof your business.
