PREFACE
COVID-19 changed how we thrive and survive, putting the BFSI sector under extreme pressure as revenue sources tumbled and credit risks rose exponentially. The BFSI industry faced unprecedented economic disruption with competitive market distribution, rising customer expectations, and external forces exploring new business models centered around digital solutions.
While the sector has always been ahead of the curve when it comes to digitization, more than 90 percent of customers in the retail banking space were technology friendly even before the COVID-19 pandemic hit.

Each track will be focusing and discussing on the challenges that the leaders face in their organizations through case studies, discuss challenges through panel discussions, and the means and ways to how technology is changing the face of the industry through Digi-talks.
TRACK 1
3 TRACKS X 1 DESTINATION
The payments landscape has experienced a wave of innovation, driven by technological advancement and consumer desire for on-demand banking and payment solutions. As a result, non-traditional market players are challenging the long-held role of incumbents. Conspicuous among these are new, non-bank competitors; some of which are already well established in the market. Given that the payments market has been traditionally served by banks, these new, innovative non-bank payments providers are causing disruption and driving rapid changes to the payments landscape. Payments leaders make decisions today to win in the future. With technology giants, FinTechs, merchants, and social media giants have created their own digital payment offerings. In the BFSI Connect Focus Series – Payment Head leaders we will discuss and celebrate Payment Leaders from the Financial Industry. During the summit, we will focus on how Customer experience has been at the heart of the future of the evolution of payments. How institutions have leveraged new technologies and digital innovation to make the customer payment experience more convenient? How with demographic shifts, technology advancements and new expectations for user experience impacted the payment trends market and among its stakeholders? Winners in the market are identified by their capabilities to provide a unified customer experience across multiple channels and geographies and to go “beyond payment solutions.”
This track will bring together the Head of Payments, Head of Digital Banking, Head of Retail Banking, Chief Operating Officer, Operation Head, Transaction Banking Head, etc.
TRACKS 2
BUILDING SECURITY LANDSCAPE
In the financial services businesses, chief information security officers had the most challenging times. In a recent study almost (71%) have seen an increase in the number of disruptive cyber-attacks on their organisations. Protecting the organization as its attack surface expands and endpoints multiply is getting harder, how will CISOs and their teams rise to the challenge in 2022? The BFSI Connect Focus Series – Cyber Security leaders we will discuss and celebrate Cyber Security Leaders from the Financial Industry. During the summit, we will focus on how besides dealing with an increasing number of attacks, special focus needs to be given to the detection of cyber-attacks which are going to be even more sophisticated than what we have seen in the past and to the cyber risks associated with business partners and third parties. Also, regulatory pressure will increase on proper cyber risk management to make financial services organisations more resilient against cyber threats.
The track will bring together CISOs, Head of Cyber Security, Chief Risk Officer, Head of Operational Risk, etc.
TRACKS 3
IT TRANSFORMATION
In the financial industry, IT leaders had been traditionally viewed as part of the operations team that takes a backseat to business strategy. But in today’s technology-driven world, strategy and IT are inextricably linked. In fact, IT is now considered as the primary catalyst for competitive advantage and strategic disruption in financial services. Every company is a technology company at its core.
As the financial services industry has been experiencing unprecedented change and technology has a pivotal role as a driving force that has helped them compete effectively. Organizations are looking for visionary technology leaders who can steer them into the future. In the BFSI Connect Focus Series – IT leaders we will discuss and celebrate IT leaders from the financial industry. We will discuss their expanding new roles that provide tremendous opportunities for increased business value and strategic impact; and how they are involved in taking on new responsibilities and demonstrating new capabilities that are different from before and requires an amplified and strategic leadership approach.
