About
The European Commission proposed legislation to make instant payments in euro available, affordable and secure for all citizens and businesses holding a bank account in the EU and in EEA countries. When this legislation will be approved banks need to be ready to receive Instant Payments six months after the legislation is passed and be able to send Instant Payments a year after ratification.

This webinar will explore the choices banks need to make to be ready for SCT Inst and the potential impact on their operations. Experts from FIS, The Payments Association EU, and Capgemini will discuss the current state of maturity and deployment of instant payments in Europe and the specific space of SCT Inst, but also challenges and opportunities presented by the advent of instant payments as well as the necessary steps to navigate this transformative shift in the payments landscape. Furthermore, we will discuss the recently launched 1.0 version of the One-leg out Instant Credit scheme (OCT inst).
Agenda
  • What is currently the footprint of instant payments in Europe?
  • What are the benefits of adoption of SCTInst (e.g talking about SCT being the backbone of A2A payment innovation, e.g. initiatives such as SPAA and EPI, being able to offer OCT Inst)
  • How will mandatory adoption of SCTinst impact banks?
  • What should banks prepare for regarding their payment systems stack?
  • What are the challenges associated with SCTinst implementation?
  • Can SCT and SCTinst coexist, and should they?
  • Is their infrastructure capable of handling 24/7 operations on all fronts?
