Cecabank Report 2018

About Cecabank

topics, such as the present and future of the securities market regulations, of

T2S (Target-2 Securities) and of Paneuropean financial infrastructures. More

than 300 attendees from 230 institutions debated the coexistence of fintechs,

ISCs (Investment Services Companies), depositaries and other market agents,

under the impact of the industry’s digitisation and regulatory pressure.

The

11th Cecabank Treasury Management and Risks Conference

was held

at the same time, with over 100 attendees from 20 entities taking part. It

became clear at this conference that the Treasury Management’s activity is

increasingly subject to two disruptive forces that are significantly changing

the way of doing business: regulation and digital transformation.

Cecabank continues to consolidate its position as a

financial innovation

hub

, in which it acts as a meeting point between banks and fintechs. Within

the framework of CK-Lab - the financial digital transformation laboratory

created by Cecabank - Public Administrations, banks and fintech companies

collaborate in initiatives related to technological innovation, and participate

in the search for a regulatory framework that favours the development of a

digital financial company.

This fact was confirmed by the attendance of over 180 people from banks,

management companies and fintechs to the

CK-Lab “The future of Open

Banking”

sessions organised by Cecabank in January 2019.

During the debate that took place, it was made clear that the banks have

to adapt to the new ecosystem with new players and a set of rules that will

arise in line with this new situation, such as the transposition of the payment

services directive (PSD2).

Also framed within the CK-Lab collaboration forum and aimed at promoting

training, research, development and innovation in financial services and

digital transformation, Cecabank and the

Camilo José Cela University

entered a collaboration agreement.
