Financial IT and Disruptive Technologies 2019

Taking the line of thought we began with our Financial IT and Banking Technology conference one step further, we proudly introduce our industry-leading event, Financial IT and Disruptive Technologies, where we will discuss the digital transition of banks and insurance companies, as well as the main challenges and best practices in the sector, with the participation of key players from both finance and IT.

Hungarian financial institutions are lagging behind the average in terms of digitalisation according to the National Bank of Hungary, ranking only 25th in Europe, and this shows in the cost efficiency of banks. Developments are sluggish and costly, and the situation is no better at insurance companies, either. Complex legacy core systems and organisational cultures prevent financial institutions from carrying out a comprehensive digital transformation.

Meanwhile, fast-reacting challenger banks and insurers have entered the market looking to nab the revenues of incumbents, while big tech companies may introduce new financial services at any time. PSD2 has also arrived, and the instant payment system will launch this summer, which also represents a major task for banks. What can banks and insurers do in such a tight spot? How can they preserve their advantage? Will they beat or tame their challengers? Or will they simply shift up a gear and leave them standing?

We will seek answers to these and many other questions at our industry conference, held for the seventh year running, where international speakers, bank and insurance executives and IT opinion leaders will share valuable knowledge with attendees. We offer participants a full day of professional programmes, parallel thematic sections in the afternoon, a reception in the evening, and numerous networking opportunities throughout the day.

Topics

Digital transformation – Will incumbents get going or be left behind for good?
Important changes in transactions – Instant payments and PSD2
Innovative technologies and agility at banks and insurers
Hungarian fintech and insurtech innovations – Investors, fintech gurus and startuppers in one place

      What Our Participants Say

      Professional recognition, community, experience – read what our participants said about us!

      "The Property Investment Forum is one of the most important events of the Hungarian real estate market, where we can discuss the situation and future of the industry and meet the key players of the sector. The Futureal Group has therefore been an active participant and speaker at the event for many years. The Property Awards is a particularly special event for us, as it is here that the Darida Pál Memorial Award, founded by Futureal, is presented to the Real Estate Finance Personality of the Year."

      Futó Gábor
      co-founder and co-owner, Futureal Group

      "The retail sector receives sadly little publicity compared to its weight in the national economy. The Portfolio Retail Day compensates for this by bringing together key players in the sector, allowing us to communicate informally and learn about what's new."

      Szimeiszter Sándor
      Country Director for Hungary, Austria and Greece, JYSK

      "There's a lot of knowledge you can hear about here at the Agricultural Conference that you can't hear about at any other conference."

      Petri Bernadett
      Managing Director, Hungarian Development Promotion Office (MFOI)
