The fifth US edition of the NexGen Banking Summit takes place in New York on 17 and 18 November 2026. The two-day event is aimed at decision-makers from banks and financial institutions, along with the technologists and solution providers working with them, and is billed as an AI-focused banking summit.
The agenda looks at where artificial intelligence is taking retail and commercial banking over the next five years. Sessions cover agentic AI, operationalising enterprise generative AI, AI-assisted model validation and AI governance. Alongside these are tracks on core banking modernisation and cloud migration, open banking and embedded finance, fraud prevention and identity verification, RegTech for compliance, and real-time payments infrastructure.
Keynotes come from senior figures at Piermont Bank, Barclays, MUFG and Wells Fargo, with further speakers from JPMorganChase, Standard Chartered, Amalgamated Bank and Huntington National Bank. Past participants named by the organiser include Citi, HSBC, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Santander and BNY.
