A myriad of forces reshape the payments industry everyday.
Whether it is new technology, new regulations, or new attacks by fraudsters, it can be tough to keep up with the ever-changing landscape.
In this episode, we discuss how payments professionals can learn about all of these factors and more at the Innovative Payments Conference, taking place at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington DC, April 29 through May 1.
Brian Tate, the IPA’s CEO, talks about what’s on the agenda for the upcoming conference, including:
Russell Vought, head of OMB and acting director of CFPB, talking about the future of the Bureau and Regulation, and
David Wasserman, of the cook Political Report, providing a nonpartisan analysis of the upcoming Midterms.
We will also have sessions on things like AI, EWA, Fraud, and Open Banking. Additionally, the IPA has also arranged a special tour of The FBI Experience immediately after the conference for those interested in learning about the history of the Bureau.
