The Global Reputation Forum (GRF) has announced speakers for the 2023 edition of the Reputable Banks and Fintech Awards & Conferences (RBFA), converging world fintech and banking industry stakeholders in London, United Kingdom in December 2023.
The annual event which provides a platform for fintech startups and established banking institutions to showcase their latest innovations will also bring together experts from both the financial and technology sectors at the British London Marriott County Hall venue.
From digital payments and lending to robo-advisors and blockchain-based solutions, participating institutions and personalities get to witness firsthand how technology is transforming traditional banking services.
According to organisers, a burst of showcase of innovation, regulatory insights, knowledge sharing, networking, market trends and predictions, would be expected at the gathering as GRF aims to foster collaborations between fintech startups and traditional banks in an increasingly developing industry.
The RBFA, organized by the Global Reputation Forum is an initiative of Reputation Poll International (RPI), a leading global management firm known for listing the 100 Most Reputable People, 100 Most Reputable Africans, and 50 Most Reputable Bank CEOs.
GRF Chief Executive, Dr. Rex Idaminabo FRSA, said: “RBFA will create an environment where these two worlds can meet and explore opportunities for collaboration, which can lead to mutually beneficial partnerships.
“As fintech and banking industries are subject to ever-evolving regulations, GRF will include sessions dedicated to discussing compliance and regulatory changes. This is crucial for ensuring that innovative financial solutions remain in compliance with legal requirements.”
Dr Idaminabo explained that the Reputable Banks and Fintech Awards/Conference is designed to acknowledge rapid expansion, integration, accelerated growth and reforms of Africa’s banking and financial sector.
