Financial Institutions' Showdown in 2025 - a pivotal day to remember
The Banking Exchange (BEX) 2025 is set to take place on September 16, 2025, in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. This one-day event promises to be a real level-up from its previous iterations, focusing on the future of banking, particularly the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in shaping sustainable and inclusive financial services.
The event will feature thought-provoking discussions, debates, and "aha" moments, with a key focus on the impact of AI and ChatGPT on banks, customer behavior, advice, and user interfaces. The keynote discussion promises to be a highlight, delving deep into these topics.
In the payment area, provocative questions will be asked about the future of instant payments, stablecoins, and wallet wars. Other topics to be covered include the reality of AI in banking, the role of embedded finance, the performance of neobanks in Germany, digital assets, credit scoring with open cards, trade finance, private debt, and retail investing.
The event will also shed light on Gen Z and their preferences for banking, offering valuable insights for financial institutions. Furthermore, the event will conclude with a celebration in the evening, making it a day of learning, networking, and celebration.
The focus of the event remains on creating space for real conversations, strategic impulses, and a community that wants to co-create banking. With the economic situation being tense, leading to sponsoring decisions being made later or more cautiously, the event is expected to attract visionaries and leaders in the financial industry.

It's important to note that while the exact session schedule has not been detailed in the available information, the event is characterised as a high-level forum for exchange on future-forward banking and fintech themes.
