1st Panel: Access to Finance – What Role shall Data and AI Play in Mitigating Disparities?
By using modern credit technology Digital Lenders have been able to go beyond. Additional risk data and more recently AI allow to serve the unserved among consumers – who might otherwise have been overlooked. Thus, Fintechs do their bit for the supply of credit in Europe. But how deep is it worth to drill into the customer at all? Which role plays data quality? Can a fair line be determined where potential harm outweighs benefits?

2nd Panel: Open Finance – The Key to Eliminate the Funding Gap of European SMEs?
Taking out loans remains a major pain point for SMEs. Digital risk technology has paved the way to enhance product diversity and financial inclusion. What are the major opportunities and challenges SMEs are currently facing when seeking credit? How can Open Finance contribute to a better access to loans? What does the perfect API look like when it comes to link traditional and alternative lenders? Does the EU Commission’s proposal on Open Finance pave the right way?

3rd Panel: Tokenization – „Securitization done on Steroids“?
This is exactly what Jenny Johnson, CEO of Franklin Templeton, purported in October 2023. In fact, it is not only neatly regulated securitization that is playing an increasingly important role in Digital Lending. Now tokenization through blockchain creates additional appealing financing and investment options as well as ways to manage risk efficiently. The development is in the best interest of product diversity and the EU Capital Markets Union. But what technological risks are associated with this change? Do we run in danger of undermining financial stability by tokenizing illiquid assets what may creates the illusion of liquidity where it does not actually exist? Is there after all a need to regulate digital financial steroids more strictly?
