Finance and technology
The digitisation of money, regulatory support for digital payments, and the popularity of social platforms are transforming the way people transact and communicate with one another. With millennials as its earliest adopters and strongest supporters, internet and digital finance are projected to grow significantly in the coming years. Technology has made it possible to build business models based on trust, where peers can collaborate digitally. It is also transforming how people consume financial products and services, as well as reshaping customer expectations. Once thought of as disruptors, financial technology companies, internet-based finance platforms, and non-banking digital channels are now seen as enablers that help provide services that go beyond what traditional brick and mortar financial institutions offer.
Collaboration between new entrants and traditional banks are becoming increasingly common, as is the case for partnerships between JD Finance and ICBC or Huawei and China Construction Bank. In addition, digital-based lending and investing are now maturing, allowing underserved sectors of the population to have access to funding and investment alternatives. There has also been a rise of neo-banks that provide frictionless, digital-only banking services or challenger banks that provide an ecosystem for their services. While many in the traditional financial institution sector may perceive these new entrants as threats, the changes they generate are here to stay. This conference gathers thought leaders, innovators and industry pioneers to share their insights on the maturing financial technology industry.
