1. From Payments to Protection: Turning Banking Networks into Fraud & AML Intelligence Engines

• Fraud and financial crime are growing faster than individual banks can detect.
• Network-level data sharing, third-party enrichment, and ecosystem-wide statistics transform traditional transaction monitoring into actionable intelligence.
• Collaborative insights help banks detect more fraud, uncover complex money-laundering patterns, and significantly reduce false positives—without replacing existing systems.

• APIs have evolved into ecosystems and new frameworks like MCP, A2A, UCP, and AP2 enable more context-aware, dynamic and intelligent AI integrations.

2. Creating a new standard for cross-border payments

Together with a working group of early-adopter banks, we’re developing a new scheme to guarantee a consistently fast, predictable and transparent experience for retail and small businessses. This will result in a new standard for sending money internationally. Under the scheme, participating institutions will commit to:

• Upfront transparency on payment and FX fees • Guaranteed full-value delivery • End-to-end visibility of transactions • Commitment to instant settlement where available

These rules are designed to give retail customers the confidence and peace of mind they expect when sending money abroad, delivering a best-in-class user experience. Learn in our session the latest status of this new initiative and what benefit is it will bring in the retail and corporate payment space.

1. Stablecoin Strategy for Europe

• Convertibility as trust anchor: Stablecoins must be redeemable at par (1:1) through regulated EU institutions to increase confidence in their use.
• Foreign stablecoins as opportunity: Capturing foreign stablecoins and converting them into domestic bank deposits can generate new revenues and move deposits from overseas issuers’ to European banks thereby strengthening domestic intermediation.
• Overcoming fragmentation: Accepting foreign stablecoins while securing equal treatment for euro stablecoins abroad can unify Europe’s payments market and support global adoption.
• Strategic autonomy: A robust euro-denominated stablecoin ecosystem complements the digital euro, reducing reliance on non-European currencies and increasing demand for euro assets.
