About the event:

The regulatory landscape for payments is evolving, with upcoming legal frameworks such as PSD3/PSR and national initiatives reshaping the way payment institutions operate. During the PayBelgium Autumn Academy: Payments Legal Outlook 2026, we will explore the key legal and policy developments that will define the payments sector in the coming years.

Join us for a series of expert-led sessions on the priorities of the Belgian Minister of Economy, the evolution of the AML landscape, and the intersection between payments and crypto-assets. This event will provide valuable insights into what lies ahead for payment service providers, and how to best prepare for the evolving compliance and innovation landscape.
