GBA’s Annual Summit 2019 | Global Banking Alliance for Women | 17 June 2019 | AXA, 25 Avenue Matignon, 75008 Paris, France

The GBA Summit is a must-go for any financial institution looking to tap into the largest and fastest-growing market: the female economy. Participants are able to learn from the best programs in the world, share experiences and lessons learned, and discuss new market approaches and innovations.

The GBA’s convening power brings together top executives from a wide range of financial institutions from across the globe – as well as high-ranking government actors, policymakers, regulators and thought leaders. Attendance is by invitation only.

The 2018 Summit brought more than 150 stakeholders for an extremely productive meeting of the minds in Jordan. We expect attendance and outputs of the 2019 Summit, set to be held in Paris in June and hosted by AXA, will be equally impressive.
