This seminar was an opportunity to examine the growth and development of the UK digital payments sector.
It took place with uncertainty following the EU referendum result and as the adoption of digital payments services continued at pace.
Delegates assessed key challenges facing the sector and the outlook for new technology. In particular, delegates considered latest advances in areas such as blockchain and mobile services, alongside the evolving needs of individual and business customers, the pace of adoption, and priorities for enhancing usability, easing implementation and reducing costs.
Further sessions assessed the regulatory and policy challenges, particularly focusing on cyber security and data concerns, what more can be done to encourage productive relationships between established players, SMEs and challenger organisations throughout the sector, and discussing current financial and technological barriers for SMEs looking to integrate new systems, as well as how these can be mitigated.
