The BAFT Europe Bank to Bank Forum is a signature regional event in the international banking calendar, which sets the stage for what to expect in the coming year with market insights and thought-provoking discussions led by industry experts and C-level executives.

This year, BATF will do a reality check on key business themes ranging from social responsibility and building impactful and sustainable finance programs, to disruptions in transaction banking and disintermediation within payments and cash management.
