Sitting here at home in the UK i am closely following probably the two biggest conferences for the financial services industry in the world – Sibos 2018 in Sydney, Australia and Money20/20 in Las Vegas. As i read and watch the happenings from afar, here are the videos, articles and tweets that caught my eye.
Sibos sounds like it is all about SWIFT gpi – global payments innovation.
Day 1 – Sibos 2018 – Enabling the Digital Economy
Gottfried Leibbrandt during the Opening Plenary highlighted the 3 things that keep him up at night:
- Cyber
- Geopolitics
- Technological change
Leda Glyptis – 11:FS “Innovation was meant to keep us in the game. Not keep us at play”:

You can *trust* Ripple to Keep It Real
Swift at sibos today: “The benefits of DLT are promising, but delivering it is still years away.” There are over 100 financial institutions with access to instant payments across 40 countries and 6 continents who would say otherwise. #Sibos

Day 1 – Money20/20 – Where Money Revolutionaries Unite
Nice Recap..!
My key takeaways of @money2020 Day 1: #fintech #money2020
1. Put the customer at the center of all your activities
2. Data is key use technology as the centre of your organisation
3. Build up trust as much as you can, in case you lost it, try hard to regain pic.twitter.com/GmCXSkTypx— Timo Dreger (@insurtechforum) 22 October 2018

You *can* do well by doing good. Do *you* want a legacy? Make the world *know* you were here.
Change the world. Amen.
