Connected Banking is a not to be missed opportunity for experts, business people, and practitioners form the BFSI fraternity to discuss practical and cost-effective solutions to developing digital banking solutions.

Furthermore, the summit will explore the key insights anticipated to redefine banking by 2025, such as enhancements in customer experience, the inevitable flight to digital channels, and the intensifying competition from fintech firms. With a specific focus on Ethiopia, discussions will include the adoption of electronic banking, the current state of digital finance, the rising demand for digital banking, and the ambitious goals set forth by the National Digital Payments Strategy (NDPS) 2021-2024.
