“We’re delighted that so many of the key regulators across the APAC region have chosen Money20/20 as the place to showcase how they’re fostering innovation and creating frameworks for growth in the region and across the world.
From driving forward fintech integration to harmonising cross-border regulations and promoting cross-industry collaborations, Asia’s regulators are some of the most forward-thinking and collaborative and we’re delighted that Money20/20 can be a global platform for shaping the intersection of financial services, technology, and regulation in Asia,”
said Scarlett Sieber, Chief Strategy and Growth Officer at Money20/20.
