SUMMARY:Evolution of Cross-Border Payments
DESCRIPTION:The Evolution of Cross- Border Payments Conference to be hosted on 15 & 16 November at the Indaba Hotel Fourways will seek to address the ever evolving cross-border payment landscape in southern Africa. \nSince 2011 TCI has held 7 conferences focusing on payments. Our knowledge within the payment industry is extensive. TCI is known for the first payment conference hosted in South Africa. \nCross-border payments have undergone dramatic changes over the past fifty years. Today\, one of the realities of real-time payments is that they are initiated and received 24 hours a day\, 7 days a week (24/7) and 365 days a year. \nDigital currencies employing cryptography\, especially stablecoins and central bank digital currencies\, are entering the mainstream and raising concerns among banks and financial institutions over the future of payments. \nPayment APIs\, open banking\, and contextual banking are allowing new players to enter the payment eco-system and challenge conventional payment processing practices. Compliance and regulatory requirements have made cross-border payments complicated and costly. \nThis year’s two day conference will focus on important issues facing southern Africa cross-border payment landscape – best approaches in achieving cheaper\, faster\, more transparent cross-border payments; mega trends disrupting the cross-border payment landscape; role of application programming interfaces a framework for cross border payments; impact of cross-border payments on AML compliance; analysis of the e-commerce landscape; CBDC interoperability\, how biometric solutions can transform cross border payments and much more ….. \nOver 25 industry-leading speakers will be sharing their knowledge and insights with delegates giving them an in-depth understanding on how to develop more efficient and streamlined cross-border payment systems to support global economic activity and how to identify significant opportunities for innovation and growth. \nThe conference targets professionals from banks\, financial institutions\, service providers\, consultancies and government. \nWe invite potential delegates to join us at the conference\, so as to once again create the ideal platform for information and knowledge sharing. Involvement will create excellent networking opportunities for sponsors\, exhibitors\, delegates and speakers. \nAs organisers of the annual AML & Financial Crime Southern Africa Conference\, Trade Conferences International (TCI) is proud to bring delegates another excellent event.

SUMMARY:Anti-Money Laundering & Financial Crime Southern Africa Conference
DESCRIPTION:Despite the rigid AML regulations being enforced in all corners of the world\, money laundering and terror financing continue to be a problem\, with global FinCrime numbers are soaring sky high. The 8th instalment of the annual AML & Financial Crime Southern Africa Conference takes place against the background of the recent grey listing of both South Africa and Nigeria. After Turkey\, South Africa is the second G20 economy to have been added to the grey list\, while they join 18 countries on the grey list and 2 on the black list. This year’s two day conference will look at the effects of the grey listing and will dissect the technical compliance factors that were mentioned in the FAFT report that needs serous attention. We  will once again focus on all the important issues facing southern African countries when it comes to money laundering activities\, including focusing on issues affecting the recent listing – insufficient due diligence\, lack of training and staffing\, facilitating AML/CTF investigations\, improving risk based assessments\, fraud\, corruption and  illicit money flows.  And properly implementing new technologies. This annual gathering is TCI’s flagship conference\, and has received rave reviews from delegates\, speakers and sponsors over the past few years. It is the biggest and most popular conference on AML in southern Africa.\n\n\n\n\n“Last year we set a new record of over 240 people attending. All in all more than 1 000 delegates attended the event since the first conference in 2015.”

SUMMARY:Open Banking Southern Africa Conference
DESCRIPTION:As open banking evolves into open finance\, and ultimately into open data\, a competitive and collaborative ecosystem will emerge involving banks\, tech giants\, other financial services industry players\, such as fintechs\, and non-banks. This will further bolster innovation\, and will escalate further disruption of the industry landscape. \nThis disruptive evolution has been driven by the rise of the broader digital economy and the challenges posed by the pandemic. Businesses had to accelerate their transformation journeys and become more innovative. \nNon-financial-services providers\, especially the big technology companies\, are getting into financial services\, and are collaborating with banks in the US and Europe and competing with incumbents in Asia. \nGlobally\, jurisdictions have approached open finance and open banking in a number of different ways. Some jurisdictions have taken the approach of mandating banks to share customer-permissioned data. \nIn other regions regulators have introduced open finance and open banking through a range of measures to promote and accelerate the take-up of data sharing frameworks in banking\, while others issued an open API frameworks\, setting out approaches for banks to implement open APIs. \nThe Open Banking Southern Africa Conference to be hosted on 17 & 18 May at the Indaba Hotel Fourways will seek to address the ever evolving open banking\, open finance\, and open data landscape in southern Africa– the trends and challenges and what the future holds for its relevant stakeholders. \nThe conference will incorporate a relevant industry related programme which will include topics to be addressed such as: how open banking\, open finance and open data can empower consumers and businesses\, mitigating risks related to open finance such as data breaches\, identity theft and cyber fraud\, sharing of financial data between banks and third parties\, emerging trends in financial inclusion to strengthen policymaking in the country and at regional levels\, legalities of screen scraping and it’s risks and much more … \nThe programme will assemble more than 25 industry-leading speakers that will share their knowledge and insights with delegates giving them an in-depth understanding on how to capture opportunities within this landscape and how to find solutions to the challenges. \nThe conference targets professionals from banks\, insurance companies\, service providers\, government\, financial institutions\, services providers\, consultancies and government. \nWe invite potential delegates to join us at the conference\, so as to once again create the ideal platform for information and knowledge sharing. Involvement will create excellent networking opportunities for sponsors\, exhibitors\, delegates and speakers. \nAs organisers of the annual AML & Financial Crime Southern Africa Conference\, Trade Conferences International (TCI) is proud to bring delegates another excellent event.

SUMMARY:Regulatory Risk & Compliance South Africa Conference
DESCRIPTION:Financial services firms such as banks\, insurance companies\, fintechs and other service providers are facing more complex regulations than ever before\, making today’s corporate environment more complex and demanding than at any point in history. Many new regulations need to be managed due to the pandemic\, changes in policies\, digital challenges and several other factors. \nIn financial services in particular regulatory\, risk and compliance strategies will and must continue to evolve. Banks that succeed will take up the challenges by proactively addressing the impact of digitization on\ncompliance\, accountability\, transparency\, risk management and data governance. To do so\, banks will need to collaborate with all market participants and regulators to meet their objectives for an improved customer experience\, while also keeping both customers and financial markets safe. \nNew regulations or amendments to current regulations inevitably raise different interpretations and increase risk\, leading to possible operational failures and non-compliance. The impact and probability of hazards connected with those rules are reliant upon understanding the legislation’s intent\, interpretation of the law\, implementation of the law\, and the organisation’s handling of regulatory change management. Banks have begun to map all their risks\, policies\, procedures\, training plans\, assessments\, audit templates\, and compliance schedules to the corresponding rules and regulatory requirements.\nA proactive strategy is needed\, allowing changes in legislation and standards to drive compliance and organizational adjustments. \nFrom conduct risk\, data privacy\, digital identity\, third party risk and fair lending to ESG reporting\, GRC\, regtech and internal audit\, regulatory risk and compliance\, banks have to manage these risks and comply with all the rules and regulations concerning compliance. This conference will focus on bringing the main role players from banks\, insurance companies\, financial services\, services providers and government together at one forum to discuss and learn how they can tackle the challenges faced by financial institutions on meeting regulatory and reporting requirements. \nThe conference programme will analyse the effect of a change in laws and regulations that could potentially cause losses to your business\, sector or market. Attend this conference and network with over 120 participants\, including close to 30 speakers addressing topics covering regulatory risk challenges\, conduct risk in banks and the insurance industry\, the global regulatory compliance landscape\, consumer protection and market conduct\, and regulation technology. As organisers of the annual AML & Financial Crime Southern Africa Conference\, Trade Conferences International (TCI) is proud to bring delegates another top regulatory event.
