Banks and telcoms worldwide are rethinking their current business models and sources of revenue in light of Fintech competitors and revolutionary technology.

East Africa is a hub for such innovations and Payments East Africa (https://goo.gl/9v2RKw) is at the epicentre of this opportunity.

Nairobi is the place to be for the second annual Payments East Africa. Last year’s disruptions are this year’s tools to hold onto your customers and keep your brand alive.

Joseph Ridley, General Manger, Terrapinn, said:

“We’ve had a great response and feedback these past few weeks from banks wanting to learn more about how digital can help them become more cost effective and operationally efficient whilst maintaining margins (in lite of the recent capping of interest rates by the Central Bank). The reality is that the industry knows that technology can be a great differentiator in what is a very competitive market place as consumer expectations evolve on a daily basis”

Learn how banks can save billions by integrating blockchain security. How telcoms attract millions of customers through mobile financial services. How central banks’ regulations can boost financial inclusion and expand card portfolios.
