This is the 6th time we organize our Banking Technology conference, one of the most significant intellectual workshops of the banking and IT sectors and fintech companies, covering topics on the digital transformation of banks and discussing the key IT-business and technology development trends of the sector. Banks lagging behind plan to take a digital jump, the digitally more advanced ones are exploring new innovations to keep their positions, while B2C fintechs and bigtechs challenge the banks in an increasing number of areas as competition intensifies. MNB is convinced that the sector still needs a major change of approach together with substantial and comprehensive developments, and following MNB’s recommendations, banks will present their digital strategies and related schedules in October. This is the sixth year when the best of the top managers of the banking sector and the finest of fintech gurus, regulators and IT-company experts gather at our conference to exchange ideas in the major business and IT issues of the banking sector.
