DESCRIPTION
PSD2 is a major regulatory change that is coming very shortly. The entire Financial Services and FinTech world is preparing for it, yet there is very little coverage about what it means for retail banking customers. During a March joint event of PLUG and Polish City Club we will explore how this new regulation gives new opportunities to FinTech startups in terms of banks’ data access and what it means for regular customers of retail banking. We will also look at the flip side and discuss what challenges it poses for banks themselves.

Agenda:
6:00 PM – doors opens & networking
6:30 PM – event kick-off, welcome from Chapter Head & techUK
6:40 PM – intro presentation about PSD2 regulation to get everyone up to speed with the new law – Lukas Koszela – INTIVE
6:50 PM – panel discussion starts
– Adizah Tejani – Director of Marketing EMEA at Token

Moderator: Jacek Ratajczak – PLUG CEO
7:45 PM – panel ends, drinks & networking on site in techUK
