SUMMARY:International Leadership Perspectives: "Regulation the day after COVID-19 and the role of technology"\, with BBVA
DESCRIPTION:Description\nJoin us on Monday 25th of May at 5.00 PM for an exclusive live fireside chat  on the “Regulation the day after COVID-19 and the role of technology” as part of our International Fintech Leadership Network webinar series  \nwith \nSantiago Fernández de Lis\, Head of Regulation\, BBVA (Spain) \nand  \nNasir Zubairi\, CEO of the LHoFT Foundation  \n  \nContext\nThe world of FInancial Services has gone through an unprecedented period of regulatory action and reform over the past decade since the last financial crisis. At this time\, working through the global pandemic of Covid19 in an era of digital innovation and fast changing consumer behaviour\, many see that regulation has a critical role to play in enabling the financial services sector\, particularly in Europe\, to evolve and deliver enhanced services to their customers. On the flip side\, supervisors are required to quickly determine risks of new digital business models and create appropriate rules to protect consumers and ensure a level playing field.  \nAgenda\n\nHow will regulation change\, if at all\, as a consequence of our experiences of COVID19?\nHow is digital innovation in finance impacting regulation\, what headaches/opportunities are there?\nAre there lessons we can learn from Asia or other places to strike a balance between regulation and innovation?\n\n  \nMeet our speakers \nSantiago Fernández de Lis is currently Head of Regulation at BBVA. He was also Chairman of the Banking Stakeholders Group of the European Banking Authority (EBA).

We will hear from Caroline about the work of the OECD on Blockchain and why it is important to them and us. \nAgenda and Learning Outcomes:\n\nWhat work is the OECD conducting on blockchain and why?\nHow are countries looking at blockchain\, where will it add value?\nWhat more can be done to drive blockchain adoption? Will international coordination help\, and can that be expected?\n\nLearn more about Caroline Malcolm \nCaroline heads the OECD’s work on blockchain\, assessing its policy implications & building solutions to ensure governments across the world can access and respond to the opportunities and challenges it raises. In this capacity\, she has also developed a training programme for policymakers on DLT\, leads an advisory board of 100 global blockchain experts\, and coordinates a network of project managers across the OECD relating to blockchain in topics as diverse as competition policy\, SMEs\, the environment\, data privacy and the sustainable development goals. \nLearn more about the OECD\nThe Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is an international organisation that works to build better policies for better lives. Our goal is to shape policies that foster prosperity\, equality\, opportunity and well-being for all. We draw on almost 60 years of experience and insights to better prepare the world of tomorrow. \nTogether with governments\, policy makers and citizens\, we work on establishing evidence-based international standards and finding solutions to a range of social\, economic and environmental challenges.
