Why attend

For any leader of an organization steeped in payments, it’s a time of great opportunity and great complexity. The US payment landscape is rapidly evolving, and payment modernization is a journey that requires careful planning and execution. With the move to ISO20022 and the upcoming next stage in faster payments with FedNow, the speed of change can be dizzying, but the rewards are considerable. By staying ahead of the curve, leaders can ensure that their organizations are well-positioned to take advantage of the latest payment innovations. With the right strategy in place, organizations can reap the benefits of payment modernization and position themselves for long-term success. Hear from our experts as we dive into this and cover the below topics:

What new ways of thinking about modernization are there? How thinking about systems independently rather than holistically and embracing a platform approach is key especially for those banks who don’t have the budgets to build independent connections.

What does a payments migration project look like in today’s world?
