Content
The harmonization of global payment transactions on the basis of XML formats, new EU regulations and the assessment of their impact on one's own company (keyword PSD2), the acceleration of payment transactions (keyword instant payments), protection against fraud attempts and new control obligations (keyword compliance screening) are just a few examples of current challenges in payment transactions. In the future, new technologies (such as blockchain or machine learning) as well as new providers (such as FinTechs) will influence payment transactions - but how and with what consequences for your own company? The seminar covers both the current challenges and issues as well as the trends in payment traffic.
