        From Cash to Global Finance: Connecting the Rails of Digital Payments

        Frontier StageHall 6, Singapore EXPOPremium

        About this session

        A QR code is only as useful as the network behind it. In markets where people still rely on cash, payment agents and kiosks can provide a crucial entry point to digital services. But turning that access into a dependable payment ecosystem also requires banks’ transaction systems to work smoothly and local networks to connect with the wider financial world.
        This panel will examine the often-invisible connections that make digital payments work at scale. How do cash networks and digital rails reinforce each other? What needs to change inside financial institutions to make payments faster and more interoperable? And how can fintech ecosystems collaborate across borders without losing sight of local needs?
