9 December 2020

Standard Chartered Bank is pleased to invite you to our upcoming virtual conference on Digital Transformation in Financial Markets on 9 December.

This conference will focus on use cases in traditional financial markets for some of the latest technologies and how it could transform the future markets landscape from origination to distribution and asset servicing. 

We are inviting Fintechs and Traditional Players to have a stimulating discussion on some of the most pertinent questions and practical considerations in application of new technologies to traditional finance.

This conference has a specialized focus and is targeted to benefit clients and colleagues, ranging from those with a burgeoning interest, to those with extensive expertise in this field. We aim to present a thought-provoking and meaningful experience, and we look forward to you and your clients’ participation in this event.

This event will be held over 3 webinars on 9 December, from 3-6pm (Singapore Time). Each panel will last for approximately an hour. More details will follow in coming days as the panels shape up.
