AGENDA

Amsterdam Banking Forum – June 1, 2026

09:00 – 11:30 | Session 1 – Banks in the Agentic Age: AI That Acts, Decides & Executes

How autonomous finance reshapes governance, customer intimacy, and risk.

Ban ks are moving from AI-supported workflows → AI-managed operations → eventually AI-autonomous execution.
Where fintechs bring velocity, banks bring scale, risk frameworks, customer trust.
This session explores how banks adopt agentic AI responsibly, competitively, profitably.

Topics

11:30 – 12:00 Coffee Break

12:00 – 13:00 | Session 2 – The Great Rebundling: Banks as Platforms, Partners & Product Aggregators

Unbundling created fintechs. Rebundling will define the next decade of banking.

Where fintechs expanded capability modules—payments, lending, KYC—banks now consolidate to reclaim customer ownership.
This is the architecture of super-services: fewer apps, broader distribution, shared rails.

Topics

13:00 – 14:00 Lunch Break – Sponsored networking tables with curated 6-person rotations

14:00 – 15:30 | Session 3 – Money Stack Rewired: Stablecoins, SEPA Instant, Tokenised Deposits & Digital Identity

Not crypto hype—regulated value movement for banking.
Cross-border speed, programmable settlement, identity-anchored payments.
This session strips the noise away and focuses on what banks will actually deploy in the next 24 months.

Topics

15:30 – 16:00 Coffee Break

16:00 – 17:30
 | Session 4 — Regulation in the Fast Lane: AML, AI Risk & The Future of Compliance

Regulation is no longer passive — it is now the engine determining competitive advantage.
Banks face the dual force of rapid regulatory acceleration and the industrialisation of financial crime.
Fintechs innovate faster, criminals scale faster — regulators are caught in the middle.
Banks must redesign compliance architectures to be continuous, real-time, and intelligence-led.

Topics
