From payments all the way to asset management, digitization is transforming finance. Combining academic and business perspectives, the SFI Annual Meeting will host discussions on the trends and implications of digitization in the financial world. Does digitization reduce or increase frictions in the financial system? Can we create a decentralized system of financial intermediation, and is this desirable? How far will generative AI transform finance, and how should we grasp the opportunities and manage the risks?

The Annual Meeting of the Swiss Finance Institute (SFI) is one of the leading events in the Swiss financial community’s calendar and an exclusive discussion platform. It brings together the finest minds in academia and key financial market players. The widely respected event enables practitioners and academics to exchange the knowledge and expertise that will keep Switzerland at the top in banking and finance.

This year, we are pleased to welcome Prof. David Yermack, Albert Fingerhut Professor of Finance and Business Transformation at New York University Stern School of Business, Päivi Rekonen, Chair of the Board of Directors of AMINA Bank, and Jos Dijsselhof, Chief Executive Officer at SIX as keynote speakers. SFI Prof. Fabian Schär, Professor for Distributed Ledger Technology & Fintech at the University of Basel, and Faculty Member, SFI will join the panel discussion.

The event will be moderated by Carolin Roth, business journalist.
