Global SME Finance Forum 2017

Nov 01, 2017 - Nov 03, 2017 | Berlin, Germany

Digitization of SME Finance

This annual flagship event of the SME Finance Forum aims to bring 400+ senior executives from commercial banks, development finance institutions, fintech companies, as well as regulators to focus on leveraging digital banking to serve MSMEs. This event aims to inspire participants to think beyond traditional banking mainstays such as SME collection strategies, sales tools, and credit risk management, and to explore new innovations that improve their competitive edge and enable them to better serve their MSME clients. From the fast-changing landscape of blockchain technology to growing application of AI in chatbots and customer analytics, the digitization of banking is set to take the SME financing industry to the new level. Key themes and topics will include, amongst others:
  • Debate: "Will robots replace bankers as the best advisors for SMEs?";
  • "Digital Disruption: How the fintech revolution is transforming SME lending";
  • SME credit risk management and collection strategies; and
  • Panel: Managing fraud & cybersecurity.
