In a move to lead the digital transformation of the finance sector, Globe Business has introduced a “Breakthrough” webinar series aimed at bringing cutting-edge financial technologies to the forefront of business operations and strategy.
The initiative, aligned with the National Strategy for Financial Inclusion and the Open Finance frameworks, seeks to position Globe Business as a pioneer in digital enablement for financial services.
The first part of the series, held recently, focused on educating financial service institutions about Open Finance and its potential benefits.
A second webinar, scheduled for later this month, will delve into fintech advancements, improving backend efficiencies, leveraging customer experience (CX) to expand customer bases, and building business resilience through cybersecurity.
“Globe Business is excited to help bring these opportunities to Philippine financial businesses. We commit to providing tailored solutions and technologies that your businesses need to succeed with your Open Finance journey,” said KD Dizon, Head of Globe Business.
Dizon emphasized the importance of embracing innovation to drive business growth and financial inclusion.
“As we embark on this journey of exploration and discovery, let us open our minds to the possibilities that lie ahead. We at Globe Business are truly excited to empower Filipino businesses with innovation that propels businesses towards growth and drives financial inclusion in the country.”
The webinar series is designed to address the specific needs of diverse subsegments within the finance sector, including banks, non-banking institutions, cooperatives, microfinance, insurance, and pawnshops. This targeted approach ensures that the solutions and strategies discussed are both applicable and actionable for businesses at various stages of digital maturity.
The series features insights from industry leaders such as Anatoly “Jing” Gusto, Bank Officer V of Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas; Imelda “Ida” Tiongson, President and CEO of Opal Portfolio Investments; and Alan Ainsworth, Open Finance Lead at the Cambridge Judge Business School. Each speaker brings a unique perspective on the principles of the Open Finance framework, its potential for innovation, and the practical challenges of adoption.
The discussions highlighted the active pursuit of upskilling by financial institutions to close operational gaps and discover innovative approaches to enhance existing technology programs.
By integrating these insights and practices, businesses aim to boost their market competitiveness.
The “Breakthrough” webinar series marks a significant step in Globe Business’ efforts to create a more inclusive and technologically advanced financial ecosystem in the Philippines.
Such initiatives not only aid individual businesses in adapting and thriving but also contribute to the broader goals of financial inclusion and technological progress in the country.
