Billed as “the world’s premier financial services event” Sibos 2017 Toronto has made a bold claim. However, it’s a claim that the conference can back up. In 1978, Sibos was simply a seminar about banking operations. But much like the financial services industry itself, the conference has grown to become much, much more than that. Sibos is now an annual conference, exhibition, and networking event, with around 8,000 leaders from financial services in attendance.
The four-day conference takes place between the dates: Monday, October 16th, and Thursday, October 19th at the Metro Toronto Convention Center. There will be over 200 exhibitors, hundreds of speakers and conference sessions and plenty of opportunities to discuss business strategy and grow networks that will shape the future of finance.
Regardless of your specialty within financial services, Sibos Toronto 2017 will cater to your unique needs and interests. The programme is organized into four streams: banking, compliance, securities, and technology. Each stream has a different focus, but all follow the same theme.
The theme of this year’s conference is: “Building for the Future,” focusing on four emerging areas of concern for financial institutions:
Cybersecurity
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
The impact of geopolitical and regulatory shifts
Data and identity
A working knowledge of these topics can help any leader in financial services prepare their business for the future! Don’t miss this event, register today at https://www.sibos.com/plan-your-trip.

We are proud to announce that we have been selected as finalists in the UBS Future of Finance Challenge 2017! That means that Veriday will be taking part in the Americas final in New York on November 8th, 2017.
The UBS Future of Finance Challenge 2017 is a competition open to Fintech companies around the world with disruptive technological solutions that will transform the banking industry. Back in June, we entered our product: Digital Agent into the competition. Digital Agent is a transformative marketing and compliance platform that helps enterprises in financial services create a more personal engagement channel for their network of independent agents.
We are looking forward to the finals, holding a high level of confidence in our platform. Our team has seen the results that Digital Agent can bring businesses, it’s about time that everybody else does too. We will update everyone on our progress in this competition on Twitter (@VeridayHQ) and LinkedIn.
Last week, Veriday CEO, Marc Lamoureux (@mlamveriday), attended the Digital Marketing for Financial Services Summit: Europe in London, England. In addition to having our CEO speak, Veriday was a Gold Sponsor of the event. The event took place at the Tower Hotel, located along the River Thames, next to the world famous World Heritage Site, The Tower of London from September 21st to September 22nd.
The setting was phenomenal. In the shadows of a medieval tower, financial marketers from across the world shared ideas about how the financial services industry can prepare for the future. In a location that for centuries has been used to isolate people and valuables from the rest of society, digital marketers discussed how the financial services industry can create more connections.
Our CEO, Marc Lamoureux, took the stage on Day 1 of the event to discuss how banks and other financial institutions can humanize digital channels, making them more inviting to consumers. His presentation at the Digital Marketing for Financial Services Summit touched on several of the topics he discussed in one of our previous blog posts: Brand Personification: Why Should You Care?
The Digital Marketing for Financial Services Summit: Europe featured many informative keynote presentations:
Thomas Barta (@ThomasBarta on Twitter), discussed how marketers need to become (and in many cases, are already becoming) leaders of change to open the conference. It was a motivational presentation that raised the energy in the room. After he left the stage, the energy in the room suggested that nearly everyone there was ready to become a more motivated agent of change.
Another excellent presentation, this one by Kirsten Burt of UBS, discussed how distributing content through client advisors benefits financial enterprises, customers and advisors alike. That keynote hit home for those in attendance from Veriday because we work every day to create better connections between financial agents and their customers.
At Veriday, we believe that “the human touch” is an important factor for financial brands. To help enable humanized digital experiences, we developed a platform, Digital Agent, that helps financial enterprises create compliant, on-brand digital experiences for their network of agents.
While those two presentations jumped out to us, there were so many excellent presentations about the use of data in financial services marketing, creating connections through digital channels and how financial services brands can prepare for the future.
If you missed the Digital Marketing for Financial Services Summit: Europe, don’t stress. There is another Summit coming up in just a few months. The Digital Marketing for Financial Services Summit: New York, is less than two months away, you do not want to miss it!

The one-day conference will involve several panels on how industry leaders are handling complex compliance issues, what new regulations you need to be aware of and an update from the MDFA. Real-world cases will be used to examine nuances within compliance regulations. There will be discussions centered around what actions you can take to minimize the impacts that overly expensive, complicated and time consuming compliance processes have on your business.
This event is a great opportunity for Canadian compliance professionals to gain insights on pressing compliance issues. For more information on the conference, click here.

Liferay Digital Experience Platform helps improve customer experiences by bridging organizational silos and processes
LOS ANGELES, Calif. — (May 3, 2016) — Liferay, Inc., which makes software for enterprises, announced today the Liferay Digital Experience Platform (DXP), designed to help companies create and manage experiences that support the end-to-end customer relationship. With Liferay DXP, digital innovation leaders can enable every business unit in the enterprise to serve the customer consistently, by integrating deeply with business operations and building an understanding of the customer with every interaction.
“Businesses today are moving beyond a narrow focus on marketing to look at the whole experience of their customers,” said Edwin Chung, VP of Product Management for Liferay. “Liferay DXP helps companies present the right personalized experience for the moment: frustrated customers need help, not targeted offers, while a great service experience is an opportunity to upsell. By deeply integrating with the systems that support business units and processes, companies can act on customer sentiment and history to give customers the right resource or offer when they’re ready for it.”
A recent Forrester study* found that the No. 1 technical barrier facing digital experience leaders was inadequate integration with backend systems. Customers expect to have ready access to information locked in these systems, including order status, issues reported, profile information and a history of interactions. The brands that earn customer loyalties will be those that have all enterprise resources and departments available to help the customer. But while many CMS and DXP vendors use targeted content and offers to drive sales, they often fall short of nurturing the relationship with deeper interactions that tie into a company’s business operations.
With Liferay DXP, sales, marketing, support and service teams can truly work together for the customer. The Liferay platform assembles a comprehensive view of the customer from separate systems, uses that insight to improve customer interactions, and integrates those interactions to the company’s operations. Liferay DXP also enables partners and employees to interact with customers to influence sentiment and support the relationship.
Liferay DXP provides:
Flexible architecture for transformation: Liferay allows you to quickly implement digital strategy and adapt to new digital technologies with reusable microservices and integration with existing applications.
Experience management: Customer-facing business units that touch customers can design highly personalized experiences, from marketing campaigns to customer service processes, by targeting useful information, offers, and resources to user segments and individuals.
Single view of the customer: Liferay DXP creates a single customer profile aggregated from all of the customer’s interactions with the company, along with important data points such as customer sentiment, interests and significant conversions.
Engagement data: Improve customer experiences with access to engagement data such as video content views, click-throughs on targeted content, community activity and social metadata.
Support for innovative interfaces: DXP is designed to be used with modern UI and app frameworks favored by savvy front-end and mobile developers
Liferay DXP will be available for purchase at the end of May 2016.

Veriday’s UX Challenge Competition presented each group with the opportunity to present solutions for real-world problems in the UX field. Throughout the process, members of the Veriday team helped facilitate the groups’ development of a solution to each challenge.
Students were able to receive valuable feedback from our judges that could help prepare them for their future careers. The judging panel included Veriday Executives: CEO, Mark Lamoureux, COO, Chris Lamoureux, VP Marketing, Valerie Jones, and Director of Finance, Jonah Cohn.
