International Institute of Finance (IIF)のアジア・パシフィックサミットに出演します。バンコク銀行頭取など錚々たる方々の間でのパネルディスカッションです。
THE E-COMMERCE FUTURE
COVID-19 dramatically accelerated trends towards online commerce, the adoption of new payment methods and some significant shifts in consumer preferences. This poses significant questions on the extent to which these shifts will endure, or continue to evolve further, on the ability of companies to get new technologies to market, and the tools and technologies that small businesses need in transitioning or re-inventing themselves as eCommerce businesses. This session will also consider the challenges in getting digitalized services along “the last mile” to
end-users and consumers, the future of physical retail, and the ways in which eCommerce and traditional retail may blend in a post-pandemic world.

BUILDING MOMENTUM IN GREEN FINANCE
Across the region, the financial sector is rapidly gearing up to mobilize capital to help with the
transition to a low-carbon, climate-resilient economy. As China advances plans to be carbon
neutral by 2060, and regional policymakers and regulators seek to channel private capital
towards climate and environmental goals, how are industry leaders taking on the challenge?
With a growing focus on sustainable infrastructure investment, how are innovative solutions
supporting the development of clean transportation, better waste management and water
support systems, and smart cities?

GEOPOLITICS IN ASIA
Much of Asia seems poised to emerge less scathed than other regions by the COVID-19
pandemic. Over the last few years, we have seen a number of regional trade agreements that
should bring the countries closer together economically. At the same time, tensions between
the two largest powers in the region – China and the United States – are at an all-time high. The
Biden administration has inherited this tension and does not seem intent on changing the
trajectory of the bilateral relationship. Regional players are now tasked with balancing their
deep economic and sometimes cultural ties to China with their economic and (in some cases)
security relationships with the US. This backdrop of a faster economic recovery, rising tensions,
a new US administration, and potentially even more attention on the region – such as the Tokyo
Olympics, the South Korean elections, and the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Chinese
Communist Party – suggests a potentially fascinating set of issues to discuss.

PRESENTATION: REALIZING THE DIGITAL PROMISE
While financial services were already transforming at a rapid pace, the pandemic has
accelerated digital timelines across the industry. It has forced radical changes in customer
behavior, moving significant portions of the economy online and increasing customers’ comfort
and willingness to engage digitally. For many financial institutions, COVID-19 also unlocked
hidden potential, stripping away many of the barriers that organizations traditionally face in
realizing the digital promise. This session will feature some of the key findings from the IIFDeloitte ‘Realizing the Digital Promise’ series, including the key enablers for digital
transformation, such as customer centricity, the requisite talent and culture for an innovation
mindset, execution capabilities and external collaboration.
