PROGRAM 9:30AM – 10:30AM The Evolutionary Effects of Local Clearing Systems on the Global Payment Systems Grand Ballroom, Salon A/B New local payment rails like RTR coupled with operating rule changes to allow cross-border payments to be processed through these local payment rails are changing the way Global Payment Systems work. Couple payment predictability and speed with 24-hour access, the face of Corporate Cash Management could profoundly change.

Will Corporates still require accounts all over the world if they can access the payment systems any time from a single account? Will the concept of ‘follow-the-sun’ be obsolete since liquidity does not need to move? How would this affect correspondent banking?

1:15PM – 2:15PM Open Banking - Threat, Opportunity or a Compliance Headache?

Grand Ballroom, Salon A/B Open banking had been hailed as a way to revolutionize banking – “biggest change since electronic payments”. And whereas there are some notable successes (India) in the majority of the world even the efforts with the “full regulatory weight” behind them (PSD2, UK Open Banking) are not even close to delivering the promised results. Is that true? Do we understand why? What needs to change? Do we have the will to do the needful? What learning can we apply to US? Moderator

9:55AM – 10:50AM Central Banks’ View on the Evolution of Cross-Border Payments and Settlements Today Grand Ballroom, Salon A/B Central Banks or their affiliates/partners operate the local payment systems where cross-border payments are traditionally processed through while allowing commercial entities to fulfill the cross-border leg. However, some of the disadvantages of moving cross-border payments through commercial entities include speed, predictability, traceability and cost. Recently and for the first time, a few central banks collaborated on a study on how cross-border payments could be made more efficient by connecting the Central Bank Payment Systems together using traditional schemes and new technologies including Distributed Ledgers and Central Bank Digital Currencies. What benefits would this give the end-user? How would this affect Correspondent Banking?
