Episode 11: Embracing the Digital Transformation in the Financial Sector

In this episode, we chat with Dana Farrugia, CEO of Tech.mt, a public-private partnership established to promote Malta as a center for innovative technologies. She walks us through the main elements of the EU’s digital finance package, a complex set of initiatives aiming to create a comprehensive EU regulatory framework and common standards for digital financial services. She explains how this strategy will benefit fintech companies, what safeguards it aims to put in place to ensure consumer protection and financial stability, and why she’s confident that Malta can adapt its already existing DLT regulatory framework to the new strategy.
