Efma has given CaixaBank the opportunity to participate in rich discussions with fellow banks all around the world, giving us the possibility to understand their unique challenges and share different points of view on multiple topics such as Open Banking and PSD2. The opportunities of collaborating with banks on ad-hoc meetings or through specific councils are all great and distinctive characteristics that we at CaixaBank see as a great potential for all members. Overall, being an Efma member allows CaixaBank to be more aware of worldwide trends and to be constantly informed of the latest news in the sector.
An international organization like Efma provides us access to a platform that brings together local, regional,
and global leaders to participate in information-sharing and networking opportunities.
[…] it is vital for our management team to be exposed to the latest trends, innovations, and best practices impacting the banking industry.
As a member of Efma, we are able to enhance our local knowledge by developing a global mind-set to help us incorporate different perspectives as we continue to grow.
Efma has been a source of good research material for PNB and PNB Savings Bank. Especially when you are looking for leads,
inspirations and models to guide you in developing products and services that are applicable to your local market and culture.
The process of inquiry and downloading is very user-friendly and simple.
But more importantly, the fact that they personally do a company call twice a year to update you and your marketing and business heads
on the latest developments in technology, process, security and marketing, among others,
is worth more than the investment you dole out for the annual membership.
As members of Efma, we are kept up to date on the latest industry trends and practices through several resources including events, in-depth reports, newsletters, amongst others; we have access to a portal with a great collection of innovation cases and inspiring ideas, where we can also showcase ours; but most importantly, we are able to network with hundreds of other financial institutions to share knowledge and best practices on topics of mutual interest.
Learning is part of my job and something I constantly pursue also in my personal life.
When it comes to professional learning, I have three main sources: attending international conferences (sometimes luckily also speaking there),
McKinsey and Efma.
Efma provides members with priceless sources of information,
from an opened knowledge base to learning opportunities and knowledge sharing forums.
The progress Efma made in recent times is quite impressive, and I’m sure they will not stop there.
Efma is a great source for curated insights about the industry.
Whether we are looking for research on the latest industry innovations or for in-depth case studies, we find them extremely useful for our business.
The access we get to exclusive events and meetings helps us strengthen our industry network.
I think that being part of Efma is very valuable to enable our bank to connect quickly to the right divisions in other departments and have interesting knowledge sharing discussions. As the Efma representative has relationships with the individuals across the relevant areas in the bank, they are able to put you in contact with the senior leaders in the business you are interested in.
Efma brings together collaborators around the globe who are sincere in building alliances to improve lives through the innovative delivery of financial services. The exchange of insights be it via conferences, articles, topical portals, reports, etc., helps improve efficiency at the bank, and ensure a consistent and superior customer experience journey for our clients.
Efma is a knowledge platform that allows us to access valuable insights, explore new trends and get inspired with new ideas. At Efma we have found very resourceful information to further nurture the discussions of our strategy and consider different perspectives when it comes to define and approach digital challenges in the financial sector.
Being part of Efma is for me being part of a larger community where one can share, network, learn from each other and have access to a diverse set of resources, thus allowing for growth and innovation! Highly Recommended!
