Episode 59:

In this episode, we sit down with Marion Höllinger, Spokeswoman of the Executive Board (CEO) at UniCredit Bank GmbH in Munich, Member of the Board of Directors of the Association of German Banks and President of the Bayerische (Bavarian) Bankenverband, to discuss digitalisation and the payments market.

Digital payments have long since become part of our daily lives. At the same time, major changes are taking place: new technologies, new rules, changes in customer behaviour and last but not least, the introduction of the digital euro. What effects will these changes have on the role of the banks in digital payment systems? What is the right balance between innovation and a stable, efficient payments market? What requirements will the digital euro need to meet?

Ruth von Oppen and Hendrik Hartenstein speak to Marion Höllinger about the changes to current payments systems, customer expectations and the opportunities offered by new solutions.
