Der Zahlungsverkehr als Top-Thema der Bankwirtschaft und im Handelsgeschäft
Wolfram Döring
Unternehmen sind mit zunehmenden Risiken konfrontiert. Banken bieten die erforderliche Infrastruktur und sind Regulierungen "gewohnt". So können sie Anforderungen managen, müssen sich aber auch mit neuen Techniken auseinandersetzen und stehen vor der enormen Herausforderung, Geschäftsprozesse zu digitalisieren.
Unternehmen und Banken stehen bei (Kredit-)Finanzierungen zunehmenden Herausforderungen gegenüber. Diese beziehen sich nicht mehr nur auf die Fragen nach der Kapitaldienstfähigkeit, den zu bestellenden Sicherheiten oder einem adäquaten Eigenkapitaleinsatz.

Most central bankers in emerging markets would argue that DFI is still a work in progress. One of the main reasons is the need to narrow the ‘digital gap’, which in the case of DFI includes raising financial and digital literacy, addressing infrastructure issues and also overcoming challenges in the ‘last mile’ of the delivery of financial products and services.

Nils Gimpl

According to recent studies, in order to successfully manage the challenges facing finance functions in companies, a CFO must increasingly take on the "role of driver" of digital changes in the company and in his or her own area of responsibility.

Using Fintech developments in the democratisation process

Khun Cho Thar Htay

The competition among telecom providers has made access to mobile internet far easier, radically changing people's lives, and exposing them to financial inclusion and literacy, and bringing them from cash to digital finance. This has not only strengthened the individual and institutional capacities but has incorporated access to digital financial services.

Supply Chain Sustainability & Resilience in a Fragile Context
Dr. Nataliia Cherkas
In a rapidly changing world and conditions of severe economic shocks, many businesses, including but not limited to multinational corporations, are now forced to design and implement new strategies and develop the right skills to build resilience to disruptions throughout the value chains.
Undoubtedly, the COVID-19 pandemic altered many aspects of our daily life, drastically reshaping how we work and live. As a matter of fact, the pandemic was a disastrous occurrence as it left many organisations with no clue of how to move on. However, it is equally important to note that COVID-19 has shifted financial systems worldwide to a far higher level of digitalisation.

Banks and businesses face new funding challenges
Roland Kupka
When considering corporate lending applications, banks have always dealt with the assessment of a corporate borrower’s creditworthiness retrospectively. This is now set to change, creating new challenges for both borrowers and lenders.
As from the start of 2024, EU banks will have to produce concrete figures demonstrating the extent to which their business activities already meet sustainability criteria by applying the Green Asset Ratio (GAR).

SPACs: turbocharging IPOs

Prof. Dr. Christoph Schalast

With the arrival of SPACs (Special Purpose Acquisition Companies), the German stock market is experiencing a type of IPO which we would never have anticipated – especially during a pandemic. Even so, SPACs can do much more than they’re generally given credit for.

M&A – between the Covid pandemic and the war in Ukraine
Prof. Dr. Christoph Schalast
Just a pause or something more profound? There is much to suggest that the M&A market has undergone massive change in the first half of 2022. In this respect, the question arises as to how and whether corporate acquisitions and IPOs are the right way forward in the face of multifaceted uncertainty.
The point is to replace or gradually supersede physical bills and coins, which are costly to handle and are prone to facilitating tax evasion and other criminal activity. It must also not be lost on monetary authorities that eliminating printing and minting costs will maximise their seigniorage. Meaning that the entity that puts the digital legal tender into circulation gets to spend it first, for free.
