On 26th - 27th September the ninth edition of P2PFISY made its way to the gorgeous city of Rome, Italy and put on a wonderful display of policy knowledge and academic prowess in the fields of Traditional and Emerging Finance, Digital Currency, and Sustainability.
What You Need To Know
Five key insights from the 9th P2P Financial Systems International Workshop (P2PFISY 2023):
- “European and global financial systems are at a pivotal stage; increased inter-bank and institutional regulation, with specific measures attributed to adopting PSD3, is paramount to witness meaningful change to financial risk and improvement.”
- “Public infrastructure to facilitate smoother retail experiences, as well as deliver on protecting security concerns, especially in the underbanked regions of the world, continues to play a pivotal role in transforming inclusive regulatory frameworks.”
- “Advanced research methods depict a new beginning for payment solutions. The integration of TradFi with blockchain technology, cryptocurrency, CBDCs, and stablecoins is fostering novel relationships across key actors in financial services.”
- “Innovative technological and environmental explorations of identifying, producing, exchanging, and scoring large datasets of information compared with consumer behaviour is progressively becoming the biggest areas of industry research.”
- “Existing challenges to effective impact investing and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) reporting needs to be continuously re-evaluated independent of the reputation of larger enterprises, small-to-medium businesses, and rising startups.”
We were also very honoured to be joined by a breadth of new international academic findings showcased exclusively on both days of the 2-day workshop!
