The Change Officer: Future of Financial Services

EP2 "The Enabler Is Fintech Wallet Services" | Pierre-Marie Desbazeille On Digital Wallets & Retailer-Fintech Collaboration

Vuk Zlatarov Season 1 Episode 2

Within the next two years, 4 billion people will be using digital wallets and the global mobile payments market size is expected to hit US$5.5 billion by 2024. EP2 of The Future of Financial Services explores how increasing mobile penetration, the notoriously high numbers of under- and unbanked individuals, and rapid development in the fintech space create opportunities for retailers and customers alike. 

Our expert guest is Pierre-Marie Desbazeille, the Chief Operating Officer for Al-Futtaim, one of the largest retail groups in the MENA region. He was instrumental in launching a digital wallet for Al-Futtaim that has seen widespread adoption across their customer base.

Join us to learn about: 

  • Noteworthy shifts in customer behaviour over the last few years 
  • The opportunities digital wallets offer to the under- and unbanked
  • How retail groups can enable a digital wallet 
  • The unsolved problems in the retail sector that could open up exciting opportunities and solutions
