On behalf of the EU-ASEAN Business Council, as a supporting partner, EUROCHAM Malaysia would like to invite our members to participate in the upcoming webinar by the EU-ASEAN Business Council regarding the ASEAN’s 2021 Digital Toolkit Series: Banking on Cross-Border Payments happening Friday, 29 October 2021 at 4 PM (SGT).

Digital payments are a key enabler for digital commerce, and cross-border transactions, in particular, are instrumental for the development of ASEAN’s economy – and not just for e-commerce. The COVID-19 pandemic has been a game-changer, accelerating the adoption of digital payments in a region where cash reigns supreme; movement restriction orders forced businesses to shift operations online and consumers began turning to e-commerce for everything from food delivery to buying essential goods. The region’s large base of underbanked customers is now also empowered to make online purchases as e-payment platforms proliferate.

Join together with an impressive line-up of panellists, including Nick Illingworth, Strategic Architect, Financial Services, SAP, Ben Dyson, Advisor, BIS Innovation Hub in Singapore, and Rishikesh Tinaikar, Business Innovation Lead, APAC, SWIFT on the discussion of the expansion of e-commerce and the increasingly interconnected digital ecosystem, the demand for cross-border instant payments. This webinar session will be moderated by Chris Humphrey, Executive Director of EU-ASEAN Business Council.
