One of the confirmed speakers, Serge Malgin (Chief Commercial Officer, Oz Forensics) while talking about his expectations from the event commented, "I'm glad to be part of the first Philippines edition of WFIS 2022. The Philippines represents a strategic market where we want to invest more in the upcoming years. Our panel will be focused on sharing our expertise around preventing and lowering the risk of biometric frauds. In fact, thanks to our cutting-edge technology we run more than 500,000 biometrics check every day across 18 + countries. In the last year 1% of total check was a potential attack successfully solved. Considering our major work in financial segment this turns into a very profitable technology that protected our clients from huge potential loss."

Varun Budhiraja, Account Executive at AppsFlyer gave a noteworthy insight concerning the fintech landscape, he said, "When engaging with FinTech & banking apps, mobile has become central to the customer experience in the Philippines, which particularly peaked during lockdowns. While primarily the goal for marketers is to be able to optimize growth through different types of campaigns, the process to achieve this could be complex. Creating seamless user profile across every touchpoint is a messy, challenging and often incomplete process. That's why those that have the mobile-first and mobile-only advantages are standing out in the competitive market."
WFIS 2022 - Philippines also aims to promote the objectives of Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) and aid the organization in sharing its vision with the country's FSI community.
