The next frontiers of global finance
This year from 29 September – 2 October, the Sibos community gathered at Messe Frankfurt to discuss the most pressing issues facing the financial industry. The theme for our 2025 conference was ‘The next frontiers of global finance’.
Hundreds of expert speakers came together to address the transformative forces reshaping the financial ecosystem, and how we can drive greater connectivity, interoperability and resilience to successfully adapt to these changes.
The 2025 conference programme explored the digital evolution of payments and securities, increasing financial access, bolstering financial crime compliance, cybersecurity, regulatory shifts, and the role of technologies such as AI, quantum and DLT.
The View from the Top, Inside Leadership, Big Issue Debate, Industry session conference streams returned, as well as Innotribe, our conference within a conference focusing on technology, society and the digital future.
