Innovation: A Core Component of Sibos

Featuring: Ralph Silva, Research Director, European Banking & Payments

The Sibos 2009 annual conference was held in Hong Kong earlier this month to discuss the issues affecting the wholesale and transaction banking community and this year TowerGroup played a major role. With close to 7,000 attendees, the event was not likely going to result in consensus, but in this period of turmoil there was much common ground to build on. TowerGroup was invited to moderate several key debates as well as produce the closing summary, which necessitated our participation in all the key debates at the event. TowerGroup has produced a series of five podcasts covering the principle debates of the event.

In this podcast we focus on a core component of all Sibos conferences: innovation. This year Sibos was not about specific solutions, but about the process of innovation.
