'What floods' Was the question that came to mind during my recent visit to Dubai! Excited to have participated in the second edition of the Dubai FinTech Summit where industry leaders converged to explore the future of financial technology in one of the world's most dynamic markets. Engaging discussions & innovative solutions shaped the summit, offering insights into the ongoing transformation of the financial services sector and strategies driving the FinTech revolution not just in the GCC but globally. Two themes stood out: the need to make wholesale cross border payments seamless for Financial Institutions & Investments in FinTechs are projected to grow to $949 billion from 2022 - 2030. There was a clear focus on executing live business transactions which is exactly what Partior is doing. #GCC #crossborder #payments #fxpvp #production #fintech

Very excited to meet the French banking community again for a deep dive into the Digital Trade Finance opportunities enabled through new regulatory and legal options. Tomorrow evening's debates hosted by the Ministère de l'Economie, des Finances et de la Souveraineté Industrielle et Numérique will focus on 3 themes: (1) upgrading French law to align with #MLETR, (2) embracing new technologies to grow #digital #trade practices and (3) progressing advocacy around financial inclusion. I will be expanding on ITFA's Digital Trade initiatives which promote new tech-friendly policies and practices such as #MLETR #tokenisation #open #banking, and focus on progress achieved in #G7 countries such as UK and UAE. ITFA's groundbreaking work - in partnership with many peer associations - on progressing both DNI Initiative and TFD Initiative aims at increasing SME financing.
