Summary:
Join us for a fireside chat about the innovations that are transforming not just financial services but the global economy. What are the implications of these transformations on business activities and how are we preparing to meet these changes? This chat welcomes guest Gabriel Leiva von Bovet, Executive VP at Zafin, a worldwide leader in digital banking, in conversation with Jared Gorai of IIBA on how Fintech is impacting the world in general and your role in particular.
Not so long ago, banks were offering products and services for which they claimed no substitutes existed. Now we have cash-less payments such as Apple Pay and Bitcoin that completely redefine the landscape and a mobile payments company with a market cap almost as high as Citigroup. Once viewed as fierce competition, traditional banking is now working with FinTech companies to offer new products and services to customers, saving time and money, and delivering overall better customer experience.
