Digital Channels eCouncils 2020

As financial institutions worldwide are looking to adapt and manage current Covid-19 challenges, there is no better time to connect and seize the opportunities that these uncertain times offer.

The Digital Channels eCouncil will focus on how financial institutions will continue to operate, serve their customers, and contribute to slowing down the propagation of the virus.

Efma has decided to extend its exclusive councils to the entire Efma community (members and non-members) with connection and sharing as two of our core values.

Get involved in our new online councils facilitating the urgent discussions on specific topics of interest in the context of the new COVID-19 crisis – exceptionally opened to all FS institutions worldwide
