Join us for an exclusive executive roundtable on “Empowering the Digital Economy: Payments Infrastructure for the Next Decade” presented by Swift. This closed-door discussion will bring together senior leaders from banking, payments, fintech, and regulatory institutions to explore how the region’s payments ecosystem is being reshaped for the future.
The session will examine key developments including real-time payments and instant settlement, cross-border interoperability across the GCC and beyond, and the emergence of tokenised payments and asset-backed digital currencies. Participants will also discuss UAE’s leadership in digital asset regulation, the rapid growth of digital wallets, embedded finance and open banking, and how AI and data are transforming payments innovation, risk management, and customer experience.
Designed as an interactive, peer-level forum, the roundtable offers a valuable opportunity to exchange insights, share practical experiences, and help shape the next decade of payments infrastructure in the region.
