Panel discussion: European financial integration and digital innovation

As part of the third annual European financial integration conference with the Association for Financial Markets in Europe, we are pleased to host a panel to discuss how digital innovation is shaping the state and competitiveness of the European Union’s financial services sector.

What is the state of the euro area’s financial integration in 2023? Our expert speakers explore the systemic implications for the financial system of the broader digital transformation materialising. We address which opportunities and risks that moving towards a digital euro can bring against the backdrop of the new EU rulebook and consider if the evolution of a legislative framework for global developments can reduce fragmentation.
