While the retail and logistics sectors suffer throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Hong Kong's fintech sector is bucking the trend with surging demand in digital financial products. On June 8, 2021, The Hong Kong Monetary Authority unveiled "Fintech 2025," a strategy to accelerate fintech development in the world's third largest financial center.
For traditional financial firms, digital transformation is key for technology adoption, and the provision of fair and efficient financial services. This begs the question: how do traditional banks navigate digital disruption? What are the lessons learned? How to digitalize business in the most effective way?
We're delighted to have invited OutSystems to share their experience in helping financial companies to transform their business through low-code technology. Come join our exclusive executive luncheon on future proofing the financial services sector.
AmCham Executive Roundtables are private, closed-door, and off-the-record discussions that bring together leaders in an open format to address critical issues / events to inform better strategic decision making.
