2020 is an unprecedented year for humankind in most parts of the world across industries and markets. It is the first time when the world join hands to accelerate the use of technologies in a vast scale as we work from home, attend university online and even work out virtually.

In this session, Emily will discuss the latest technologies and data used by the financial sector in decision making, the benefits they bring, their challenges and limitations in times of crisis and the outlook of technology in the new normal.

FINTECH SERIES

The CUHK FinTech Seminar Series is co-organized by the CEFAR Academy and the Asia-Pacific Institute of Business (APIB). Industry practitioners are invited to campus to share their areas of expertise.  We see the advantage of bringing together the academia and industry experts, providing a platform to carry out fruitful and productive discussions, encourage the exchange of ideas and promote future collaboration opportunities.  CUHK students may also widen their exposure and receive some enlightenment in their career development.
