Forum “Cash Circulation + Self-Service. Banking and Retail”: a week before the start of the key event in the payment industry

The International PLUS-Forum “Cash Circulation + Self-Service. Banking and Retail”, the key and awaited event in the Russia&CIS payment and financial services industry, will be held in Moscow on October 4-5, 2017.

The Forum will focus on the current state and prospects for the development of cash circulation, banking and payment industry. This year, we will pay special attention to one of the most pressing issues the banking community is faced with: what are the medium-term prospects for the cash circulation? Will the cash transactions volume drop, remain at the same level or show a certain growth recently demonstrated by a number of countries?  And how do these tendencies get along with robotization, digitalization, crypto currencies and further reduction of the branch networks.

We shall concentrate on the most probable scenarios for the transformation of banking services and cash circulation dictated by modern society, the new economic and business realities as a result of the digital banking evolution. The launch of new RUB200 and 2,000 banknotes scheduled for late 2017 will be widely discussed.  To this end, the Forum Organizers will pay special attention to the problems of adaptation of ATMs, terminal networks and sorting machines to the new notes.
