EBA Open Forum on Digital Transformation with Traxpay

ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) and Sustainability are the buzzwords of our time, but what do these terms actually mean? How do you translate ‘green’ into objectives? And who is taking the lead in defining and achieving them? How do regulators and corporates weigh in? What role(s) are banks and fintechs playing to help and support these goals?

The Euro Banking Association (EBA) invites you to join the Open Forum on Digital Transformation: 8 March  Once again, there is an amazing line-up of speakers. We hope you can join the discussion!
