An EBAday Online webcast in association with ACI Worldwide.

Join the EBA and Finextra for an exclusive webcast on-demand. The session will be examining what is driving payments transformation in the European market.

Meeting the changing payment needs of customers in the digital age presents banks with ever-more complex challenges. New payment initiatives aim at promoting regional and pan-European harmonisation. One example is the convergence of instant payments and debit card payments, which has recently been gaining momentum, supporting the trend towards cashless transactions that was already accelerated by COVID-19 in the past year. What happens when standards, schemes and rails converge for different payment types? How will the user experience potentially change?

These topics will be at the core of our guest speakers’ presentations and will offer food for thought for the roundtable discussion with your peers.

Discussion points include:

• How can banks adapt their infrastructure to deal with the technological and operational challenges presented by the rise of digital transactions?
• What does it take to build regional and/or European brands that can compete successfully?
• How will new payment initiatives expand the role of acquirers?
• What role do existing scheme operators, service providers and market infrastructures play?

Our speakers:

• Moderator: Kevin Brown, Independent Non-Executive Director and Advisor, Payment Industry Insights
  
• Michal Kalina, Lead Expert Payments, Regulations & Regulatory Affairs, Rabobank
