    The Global Banking Summit will tackle the key themes shaping the future of banking in 2026 and beyond, spanning geopolitics, technology, climate, global business, and investment.

    How should banking leaders navigate the risks posed by ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, alongside the intricate dynamics of the US-China relationship? How will the Trump administration's focus on deregulation and extensive use of tariffs impact the global banking industry? As the fiscal policy cycle shifts from a period of prolonged high interest rates to successive rate cuts, are bank strategies aligned with economic fundamentals? And, as banks focus more on personalisation, how is the digital journey transforming customer engagement and operational resilience?

    Join us for three days of rigorous debate, visionary dialogue, and unparalleled networking opportunities, uniting banking professionals, investors, fintech innovators, and financial service operators to shape the future of global banking.
