The Future of Finance: From Cryptocurrencies to Responsible Investing — A Conversation with Industry Experts
Join this panel discussion to learn more about the current state of the Canadian financial sector and discover how technology and sustainability – major transformative forces – are reshaping the world of finance today. The panelists will share their insights and examine the current trends, such as cryptocurrencies and opportunities/challenges they present; the use of artificial intelligence in financial transactions; the ever-increasing importance of responsible investing and ESG (environment, social and governance) factors; as well as what these developments mean for the future of the financial services industry.

- Which Fintech sectors have the most potential for growth in the next 5 and 10 years?

- Why did the ESG factors become a driving force in the world of finance?
- Which technology/Fintech capability will have the greatest impact on the Canadian financial system?
- What skills and expertise are needed to succeed in your respective fields of Fintech?
