SUMMARY:Could Digital Currencies pave the way to a more instant\, transparent\, and efficient payments ecosystem?
DESCRIPTION:A world in which we all have the expectation and ability to move money instantaneously\, 24/7\, 365 days a year\, and with full transparency – is it only a pipe dream\, or could digital currencies be one of the paths to unlock such future? With an expectation for the digital currency to promote financial inclusion\, to foster greater competition and better access to money\, what is its potential to deliver not only as a payment method\, but a whole new infrastructure enabling instant and frictionless payments? \n14:00 Chair’s Welcome \nRobert Courtneidge\, Syndicate Director\, The Payments Association \n  \n14:10 Fireside Chat: Digital Currencies and decentralised finance – a catalyst for payments innovation \nRobert Courtneidge\, Syndicate Director\, the Payments Association (moderator) \nSendi Young\, Managing Director\, Europe & UK\, Ripple \n  \n14:30 Panel Discussion: How can digital currencies make payment systems more cost-effective\, competitive\, and resilient? \n\nWhat types of crypto and digital assets are we dealing with\, and which offer most promise now?\nGiven how innovative\, dynamic and competitive current payment system is\, what are the advantages to be gained from the introduction of Digital Currencies?\nWill DLT-based solutions need to outperform existing ones\, or merely provide an effective alternative\, to foster greater competition?\nWhat are the missing pieces of the puzzle for the Digital Currencies to go mainstream? What are the infrastructure requirements – crypto acquiring\, wallets\, better on/off ramps?\n\nSpeakers \nRobert Courtneidge\, Syndicate Director\, the Payments Association (moderator) \nJess Houlgrave\, Crypto GTM & Strategy\, Checkout.com \nJannah Patchay\, Policy Lead & Steering Committee Chair\, Digital Pound Foundation \nSendi Young\, Managing Director\, Europe & UK\, Ripple \nChristian Rau\, Senior Vice President Fintech and Crypto Enablement Europe\, Mastercard \nNicole Sandler\, Head of Digital Policy\, Barclays  \n15:20 Chair’s Closing Remarks \n15:30 Event End \n  \n
