]]> Fintech Power 50 webinar: Regtech at scale - control, cost and accountability Fintech Power Media Ltd 00:37:43 Regtech now sits inside core financial operations: reporting, monitoring, resilience, conduct and third-party oversight. As reliance on automation increases, regulators are asking harder questions about evidence, ownership and control, especially when systems fail or decisions are challenged. Firms are being pushed to show how controls work in practice, how data flows through systems, and how accountability is defined. At the same time, boards are questioning spend, duplication across tools, and exposure to third-party providers. That shift in scrutiny goes beyond formal submissions. Regulators care less about box-ticking and more about whether firms can prove their controls work on an ongoing basis. As a result, everyday issues like data quality, consistency and operating set-ups are coming under closer attention. This Fintech Power 50 webinar will bring together a panel to discuss how RegTech is holding up under scrutiny. The conversation will focus on what stands up in practice, where pressure points show up, and how organisations are responding to tougher regulatory expectations Regtech now sits inside core financial operations: reporting, monitoring, resilience, conduct and third-party oversight.

Host: Mark Walker: Editorial Director at The Fintech Times

Guest: Victor Padee: CRO at Aevi. Tom Voaden: VP of Commercial at BR-DGE. David Messenger: Global CEO for Ping Pong Payments

Expanding into new international markets offers immense growth potential, but it comes with a web of complexities—from fragmented local payment schemes to heightened compliance risks. In this episode, Mark Walker sits down with experts from AVE, Bridge, and Ping Pong Payments to deconstruct the current landscape of cross-border payments

The discussion covers the differing needs of B2B versus B2C merchants, highlighting how enterprise merchants use orchestration to optimize conversion rates and how B2B companies prioritize straight-through processing and compliance The panel also debates the impact of fraud on international transactions and offers predictions for the industry in 2026, including the rise of agentic commerce and a return to business fundamentals

Main Topics Discussed:

  • Defining Cross-Border Success: How merchants in travel, gaming, and retail aim to make global commerce feel like a local experience for customers
  • The B2B vs. B2C Divide: While B2C focuses on conversion and user experience, B2B demands rigorous compliance, liquidity management, and certainty of settlement for high-value transactions
  • Navigating Local Fragmentation: The importance of adapting to local schemes (like Gyrocard in Germany or eftpos in Australia) rather than relying solely on international rails
  • Payment Orchestration: Utilizing data to route transactions for higher authorization rates and lower costs across different regions
  • Risk and Fraud: Strategies for managing higher fraud rates in cross-border trade, including the shift from random attacks to structured exploitation of local rules

Guests: Neira Jones, David Birch

In this episode of the Payments Power 50 podcast, Neira Jones speaks with digital finance expert David Birch about the real shift AI is creating within payments. Rather than incremental improvements in fraud detection or customer service, the major transformation will come when consumers deploy their own AI agents to manage spending, saving and everyday transactions.

  • Topics covered include:
    • Why AI adoption by consumers, not institutions, will be the true disruption
    • How AI agents could negotiate payments with retailer bots
    • The impact on loyalty, interchange, card choice and settlement routes
    • Ethical concerns including bias, explainability and autonomy
    • Why bots will need their own digital identities
    • The future role of wallets and digital asset managers
    • How blockchain based market infrastructure fits into the next generation of payments

A forward looking discussion on what happens when AI becomes the primary participant in payments rather than the tool behind the scenes.
