[Fintech Leaders] is a publication that really [is] able to gage and understand the way the industry is evolving and trends that are emerging. Authored by the industry, and representing [their voice], it is a true and accurate representation of trends that are out there.
[The Fintech Leaders report enables us to] move high quality data and insights into more inclusive and better designed services. It also helps us prepare for what is ahead, in the context of building resilience of our own infrastructure, and the domains we choose to invest in.
[Fintech Leaders] allows us to go deeper and get specific insights from individuals about things that are happening under the surface… [Reports like Fintech Leaders] inform our strategy; are we moving in sync… and what things are we missing?
Reports such as [Fintech Leaders] enable the industry to have a detailed view of the current risk landscape across financial services, including emerging trends… enabling constructive discussions within organizations and externally.
Fintech Leaders [will] provide direct insights into what’s happening in the industry, and large lenders, retail, and commercials will be able to see untapped profitable segments… Portfolio acquisitions, footprint expansion and potential new models, data acquisitions, or analytics pipelines can be guided by or directly around the information provided from [the report].
I like that [with iNFRont Magazine] I can bring awareness amongst industry experts about certain things that I can see in my personal view are important. I think it’s great having one of these publications being shared with industry experts, I think opinion matters and it can open people’s minds to the way that they see things.
I enjoyed this immensely, sharing the stage with many amazing thought leaders and industry practitioners to address the challenges and uncover opportunities to solve TPRM pain points… Lots of great dialogue and collaboration to move the industry forward!
Our team was able to attend the CeFPro TPRM USA: Cross Industry conference… The conversations were fantastic and the networking opportunities even better.
Great event discussing TPRM transformation and supply chain resiliency… Always great to learn from industry experts…
In an environment in which institutions are challenged by new regulations and the advent of aggressive advances in artificial intelligence, access to reliable information is essential. Having a global survey on third party risk management helps to pinpoint shared concerns and challenges, while also offering, at large scale, best practices and common trends.
An annual global third-party risk management industry study provides great insight for both advisors and practitioners. Transparency into the analytics of key industry trends and best practices such as positioning within the lines of defense, resourcing models, and regulating body compliance, among others provides an opportunity to not only understand current state but a preview into forecasting analysis pertaining to the evolution of TPRM.
This was the best Risk Americas Convention in a decade!
