Unlocking the Future of Financial Services: Navigating the Intersection of Data Sovereignty, AI, and Cloud

AWS is hosting a private executive lunch at Money20/20 Asia on April 22, 2025, in Bangkok, Thailand for Banking and Payments leaders and you are invited!

The financial services landscape is undergoing a seismic shift. Emerging technologies like cloud, AI, and blockchain are transforming the way we think about money, risk, and security. But with great innovation comes great responsibility. As financial institutions navigate this new landscape, they must also contend with increasingly complex regulatory requirements, rising customer expectations, and evolving cyber threats.

Our expert panel will delve into the critical issues surrounding data sovereignty, AI, and cloud, exploring the following key themes:

• Ecosystem of Money: How are emerging technologies transforming the financial services landscape?

• Digital Transformation: What are the key challenges and opportunities in implementing digital transformation strategies?

• Financial Inclusion: How can data sovereignty and responsible AI practices drive financial inclusion and access?

• Risk & Security: What are the critical risks and security considerations in navigating data sovereignty regulations and implementing responsible AI practices?
