OVERVIEW

Join industry leaders for a dynamic roundtable discussion on the evolving payments landscape. This insightful and forward-thinking roundtable, presented by Asian Banking & Finance in partnership with Cognizant, explores the strategies, trends and innovations that are shaping the future of payments in Southeast Asia.

Southeast Asia (SEA) has been propelled into a rapid digital transformation due to the pandemic, leading to a significant increase in cashless transactions, cross-border payments and further advancements in the digital services.

Financial institutions are facing challenges as the industry becomes increasingly fragmented with more players and new business models entering the competition.

The roundtable will delve into best practices for operational transformation and future-proofing payment infrastructure to keep up with rapid technological advancements while also addressing trust barrier and regulatory requirements.

In this executive roundtable we'll talk about:

The evolving payments landscape: Discuss the key trends shaping the future of payments and explore the challenges faced by financial institutions in adapting to these changes, including fragmented systems, legacy infrastructure, and regulatory hurdles.
Unifying the payments ecosystem: Brainstorm strategies for breaking down silos and achieving a single view of payments across the organisation.
Amping up volume and creating value: Identify ways to leverage new technologies to increase transaction volume and efficiency.

Operational transformation and future-proofing payments: Analyse best practices for optimising internal processes associated with payments and discuss strategies for future-proofing existing infrastructure to accommodate technological advancements.
Regional considerations and collaboration: Explore opportunities for regional collaboration amongst financial institutions to address common challenges.
