Fintech Innovation Summit 2017 Malaysia

Asia | Financial Services

Third Party Event

07 Sep 2017

Themed as “The Next Level of Openness in Financial Services”, the summit will highlight how technology and changing consumer behaviors have enabled financial services to be open and more accessible in new and existing markets.

While the open platform environment brings new opportunities, IDC urges the industry to consider:

  1. The next generation of digital banking will need to unify client data and monetise such information;
  2. Tomorrow’s digital banks will focus on processes that serve customers’ requirements of speed and efficiency, not the requirements of the institution;
  3. Application programming interfaces (APIs) as the core enabler of staying relevant and ahead of competition;
  4. Disruptive technologies such as cognitive, robotic process automation and blockchain to enable value propositions previously believed impossible;
  5. Taking a pragmatic approach to develop your fintech partnerships where the incumbent and fintech firms must be able to address the new demands of digital financial services;
  6. Regulation will not be the barrier for innovation or competition as regulators are taking up new roles to promote realistic, healthy levels of competition.

Standing out from the competition will not be easy; customers are expecting their providers to have a deeper understanding of their needs and fulfilling those demands faster than your competition.

Join our analysts and speakers from MDEC, CIMB, Alliance Bank, Maybank and other leaders at the Malaysia Fintech Innovation Summit 2017 on 7th September,  at InterContinental, Kuala Lumpur.

Ease of transfer: A number of remittance-focused financial technology players are: expanding operations in emerging markets

Financial technology (fintech) firms are gaining market share that was formerly the preserve of established remittance service providers. Remittances have grown in importance in recent decades and now constitute the largest source of foreign income for many developing economies.

Growth has only gathered pace, with the importance of remittances as a source of…
