Discover the Future of Banking with Us. Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) is becoming increasingly important for both FinTech companies and incumbent banking providers. It is not just a buzzword, but a (r)evolution in the financial world. It allows third-party providers to access the main pillars of the banking infrastructure through seamless API integration.
This business model allows financial institutions to use third-party technology services and infrastructure to expand their product range and respond more flexibly to changing customer needs. On the other hand, it opens up business opportunities in the financial services market to non-regulated service providers. The European and national supervisors play an important role by framing, i.e. regulating and monitoring these developments. Even lawmakers make their contribution.
We are pleased to highlight the growing significance of Banking-as-a-Service as a still wild business model in the financial industry, to provide information on the key issues of Banking-as-a-Service, to stimulate discussion on various aspects including economic, legal and regulatory issues, technological trends and opportunities for innovation, and to offer a platform for experts, market participants, academics and students to exchange ideas on various topics related to BaaS and expand their network.
We cordially invite you to join us for our Banking-as-a-Service Lecture on 7 March 2024 in Frankfurt am Main. We are very pleased to organise the format of this Lecture with our cooperation partner, Deloitte.
The event will serve as a platform for creating a strong network of engaged and interested individuals, facilitating the exchange of knowledge and making a valuable contribution to the development of Banking-as-a-Service.
