Modernizing Canada’s payments ecosystem is going to be a big job for everyone. Meeting the evolving payments needs of consumers and businesses will involve a once-in-in-a-generation transformation of our mindset, operations and technology. Ecosystem players – regardless of their role – will benefit from the experience of Piet Bil, Managing Partner at Kyndryl, a global transformation leader who will share valuable lessons gathered over the years that that are particularly relevant for the payments modernization journey.  

Breakout session: April 27th - 1:00 pm - 1:45 pm

Speakers: Inga Seelemann, Offering Lead - Cloud and Applications, Data & AI and Sachio Iwamoto, CTO - Financial Services Sector, Kyndryl

Payments modernization brings financial institutions the opportunities to improve their operational processes, improve customer interactions, and create new products and services enabled by new payment channels and identify management. The common denominator to harnessing these opportunities is the data that ties together the customer and product.  We believe it is time for organizations to bring the same advances in technology to their customer data platforms – adopt a data fabric approach to bring organizational data together more effectively to support new product development and customer engagement.

Breakout session: April 28th - 1:00 pm - 1:45 pm

Speaker: Gregory Smith, Senior Partner - Financial Services, Kyndryl

Did you know some financial institutions are spending 6-10% of revenue on compliance activities? And that the average cost of maintaining compliance is $10,000 per bank employee? We think it’s time for organizations to leverage the many advances in technology, analytics, and AI to improve the quality of risk management outcomes while also reducing overall costs. Kyndryl will present global perspectives on successful digital transformation of compliance and risk management practices. Canadian firms have plenty to learn from the journeys that other countries have gone through; we look forward to sharing those valuable lessons with conference attendees.

Panel discussion: April 28th - 2:55 pm to 3:30 pm

Anna Rossetti, Banking Partner at Kyndryl will join the leaders in payment ecosystem for an interactive conversation focusing on the key takeaways from the Payments summit 2022.
