SESSION ONE
ALL ABOARD! FILLING CAPABILITY GAPS WHILE SAILING THE INCREASINGLY COMPLEX LENDING ECOSYSTEM
A structured industry turned into a variegated ecosystem that is becoming more and more diverse and populated day in, day out. Still, there is a lending transformation to keep up with: whether tech capabilities are to be upgraded, relationships with other players deepened or new customer segments and behaviours fully understood, one thing is clear: everybody still aspires to assimilate those very FinTech-attributes that sparked the credit revolution in the first place.

AUTOMATE OR BE LATE: THE IMPACTS ON OPERATIONS AND COST SAVINGS BY THE NEW TOOLS ON THE BLOCK
With lean FinTechs around, any inefficient lender is exposed more and more everyday. Advanced technologies and methodologies must be deployed in a smart way inside an organisation to stay profitable and sustainable. On a positive note, simplification and automation have already shown to impact margins positively and free up human resources from manual processes, giving possibilities to focus more on the development of value-added parts of the business.

SESSION THREE
THE GOOD TIMES OF DATA SHARING, THEIR LOW-HANGING FRUITS AND HOW TO TRANSFER VALUE BACK TO CUSTOMERS
The lending value chain is more interactive than ever, criss-crossed by new chances for all parties to openly share information. However, the hunting-gathering of big chunks of clients' data is not the real challenge: making sense of what's already at one's fingertips is! On the back-end, AI, APIs and analytics empower hyperpersonalisation and better credit decisions. Yet, to make a difference, value must be then transferred on the front-end, with remarkable journeys, speed and a fair pricing more suitable to the borrower profile.

What links together younger generations inclined to originate loans straight from their smartphones, retailers eager to close more sales, and a tech-savvy lender?
