The session focused on the complexities of regulating the digital economy and creating more transparent, accountable online spaces. Panelists included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Ararat Ghukasyan, First Deputy Chairman of the Management Board, Unibank<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Tatjana Macura, Minister for Gender Equality and Economic Empowerment of Women, Serbia<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his address, Ararat Ghukasyan spoke on the convergence of digital finance and data governance: \u201cBanks are adapting to a world where data is currency\u2014but that data must be protected. Regulation must be smart, harmonized, and forward-looking.\u201d He added: \u201cWe live in a century where information can be transformed into data that builds trust, lowers business costs, and enhances competitiveness. That is the magic and the key to success. At Unibank, we use AI-based credit scoring and approval systems that have significantly improved processing speed, objectivity, and equitable pricing\u2014without human bias. Can we do more? Absolutely. But this requires greater collaboration across the industry and broader society.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
