Mambu Hosted Lunch

For decades, global payments have relied on fragmented correspondent banking networks that move money slowly, with limited transparency and significant operational complexity. That model is now being challenged by the rapid rise of real-time payment rails, interoperable networks, and new programmable digital asset technologies.

Financial institutions are beginning to redesign the underlying infrastructure of payments — shifting toward a real-time, always-on ecosystem where value moves as quickly and seamlessly as data.

In this session, payments and technology leaders will explore the emerging technologies that are reshaping how financial institutions build and scale global payment infrastructures.

Key discussion points will include: • Interoperable instant payment networks – How domestic real-time payment systems are evolving toward interoperable “network-of-networks” models that enable faster cross-border transactions. • Programmable settlement infrastructure – How "Digital Twin" ledgers and regulated stablecoins are reducing the need for manual oversight enabling atomic settlement and embedding compliance directly into the transaction layer. • AI-driven payment orchestration – How AI-driven routing and decisioning can select the most efficient payment rails in real time, improving liquidity management while reducing operational risk and fraud exposure.

Join us as we explore how financial institutions are moving beyond siloed legacy payment architectures to build a new global infrastructure for instant, scalable and resilient payments.
