TOPICS

The Future of Finance

What is the future of Money? How is technology changing the way we interact with banks, insurance companies, and other financial institutions? What is the future of payments and our ability to transact? We’ll attempt to answer these questions at FMC22.

Regulatory Developments

Some important Regulatory developments were finally put in motion this year in Moldova. We will talk about the latest local Open Banking, Regulatory Sandbox, and Instant Payment System legal initiatives, among other Reg topics.

Embedded Finance and SMEs

How can Embedded Finance help SMEs grow their business and improve interaction with the customer? What are the global trends and is there potential for Moldovan SMEs? Can financial institutions provide better digitalized financial services to businesses?

Fintech and Global Events

2022 has been an eventful year. While still dealing with the effects of the pandemic, the war in Ukraine is having a huge impact on the global economy and finance sector. Markets took a down-turn across the board, including brutal valuation corrections in the fintech space. We’ll touch upon some of these topics on September 30th.
