2027 is closer than it looks: Are you ready for Europe’s identity shift?

Europe’s digital identity landscape is changing fast. By 2027, financial institutions will need to navigate the convergence of eIDAS 2.0, the EUDI Wallet, AMLR and ETSI identity verification standards, with implications for everything from customer onboarding and authentication to higher-risk transactions and reverification. The Identity Shift: A Playbook for eIDAS 2.0, the EUDI Wallet, and ETSI v2 explains how these frameworks fit together and the key milestones organisations should be preparing for.

Crucially, this goes beyond compliance. The changes create an opportunity for payments businesses to rethink identity journeys, strengthen protection against threats such as deepfakes and injection attacks, and create smoother customer experiences across Europe.

Download the playbook to understand what’s changing and how to start preparing.
