Event Description
THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT
After a well-received presentation last fall, we are pleased to welcome back Sue Whitney to share an update about Payments Canada's Modernization journey. Sue's presentation will focus on the benefits and opportunities of modernizing. This will include an understanding about how access to richer data through the adoption of ISO 20022 will help streamline business processes and strengthen Canada's competitive position as a global leader in financial services. Also, how the implementation of a new Real-Time Rail, additional AFT windows with two-hour funds availability, and deployment of the new Real-time Gross Settlement system via Lynx will support faster and more efficient payment interactions.
Sue is a dynamic speaker who looks forward to sharing how the transformation of Canada's financial ecosystem will benefit all Canadians and open a gateway for future innovations. Given Sue's role as Head of Industry Relations for Payments Canada, Sue will also be able to provide a unique insight on how the industry as a whole is progressing on this Modernization journey.
