Third Annual Conference on Banking and Finance 2019
“Fintech and Banking”
The Road Ahead for Indian Banking and Finance
August 9—10, 2019
About the Conference
The banking industry is experiencing disruption at an increasing pace. Over the past few years, traditional financial institutions and non-traditional fintech firms have begun to understand that collaboration may be the best path to long-term growth. At the same time, big tech firms are offering financial services, creating techfin solutions. The global FinTech industry is growing rapidly, driven by a powerful blend of innovative start-ups and major technology players. Banks that want to leverage its potential must act now to find ways to engage with these innovative organizations to achieve value-creating collaboration. As per one estimate of E&Y, 45 global banks reveals that only 25% are extensively engaged with FinTechs. Unless banks and FinTechs work together better, neither will reap the full benefits of innovation. They must partner, or they may perish. The most successful banks will be those that improve agility and reduce costs by collaborating with a range of different partners to build the strongest ecosystem. Banks can't do it alone; the culture must be one of collaboration. But to achieve this future state, banks will need to unleash the potential of FinTech in their own organizations. Ultimately, both banks and FinTechs must work better with each other to successfully drive innovation.
In this conference, we intend to bring academicians, industry practitioners and students on a single platform to deliberate on these issues and other allied areas in banking and finance. We invite complete papers in the following tracks:
