About the session

As emerging technologies like agentic AI, non-human identity, digital wallets, biometrics, and real-time payments gain momentum, the traditional boundaries between identity and payments are rapidly dissolving. Identity becomes a payment action. Payments become an identity signal. This convergence creates new opportunities—but also new leadership challenges.

This panel explores the convergence layer where identity and payments meet under AI-driven pressure, focusing not on tools or fear scenarios, but on decision clarity. Panelists will discuss where leaders must rethink authorization, oversight, recovery, and accountability—and how to move innovation forward responsibly without slowing progress.

Attendees will leave with practical guidance on how to pilot emerging technologies, design guardrails, and make better decisions over the next 90 days as AI reshapes trust at the point of transaction.
