The daylong summit comes at a time when India's financial services landscape is being reshaped by new regulations, evolving customer expectations, and rapid advances in technology.

With the theme 'Finance's Next Frontier', the 2025 Summit brings together the country's most influential voices to discuss how banking, markets, insurance, and fintech are preparing for a new era of challenges and collaboration.

The day begins with two marquee conversations that anchor the summit in the perspectives of India's most important regulators. Tuhin Kanta Pandey, chairman of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi), will set the stage with a keynote address, followed by a fireside chat on 'Steering India Inc. through a regulatory lens'.

At a time when global markets continue to witness volatility, India's regulatory framework is playing a central role in maintaining stability, improving transparency, and guiding corporate behaviour. This conversation will offer a grounded view of Sebi's priorities and how the regulator sees the interplay between market oversight, investor protection, and innovation.

Following this, T. Rabi Sankar, deputy governor of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), will deliver a keynote address and engage in a fireside discussion. As the RBI shapes policy on inflation, liquidity, digital payments, and financial stability, Sankar’s perspective will be essential in understanding the forces influencing India's macroeconomic and financial outlook.
