Co-hosted by CFA Institute Asia-Pacific Research Exchange (ARX) and 13 CFA Societies in the APAC region, the first-ever APAC FinTech Month was successfully organized in August, with an amazing 8,500 registrations and over 2,600 live attendees!
The aim of the APAC FinTech month was to provide the latest insights on the evolving fintech ecosystem, details on how fintech may impact the finance and investment industry, and advice to practitioners and investors to best position themselves amid disruptive developments.
The APAC FinTech month comprised a series of four webinars, which brought together 23 industry experts sharing insights and experience on the following FinTech topics:
- Virtual Assets
- Deployment of AI in the Finance and Investment Industries
- Digital Banking Maturity
- Fintech for Sustainability
The post-event survey indicated that the audience appreciated the relevancy of topics and the high level of expertise of speakers.
Commenting on the series, Justin Ong, CFA, Past President of CFA Society Malaysia and Chair of ARX Society Engagement Committee said, “I firmly believe that Asia Pacific is a critically important region, with its unique diversity, dynamism and growth potential. The CFA Institute ARX is a powerful platform, binding and connecting regulatory bodies, investors and the wider industry together. This first-of-its-kind event on this important topic will contribute towards shaping our industry and was made possible by strong collaboration among the 13 CFA Societies in the APAC region and support from our partners, ACCA, ASIFMA, CAIA, FDP and CIMA.”
All sessions were recorded and are available for viewing on demand at Asia-Pacific Research Exchange (ARX).
We are hugely thankful to the CFA Society® community and our partners for helping to make this such an impactful and successful event!
