Emmanuel Legras - CEO Belgium at Nickel

Its name may not sound familiar in your ears, but in France, Nickel has attracted some 1.9 million customers since its birth in 2013. Bought in 2017 by the BNP Paribas group, which owns 95% of it today, this establishment works in a very particular way for the banking sector. Indeed, it essentially relies on a network of about 6,000 tobacconists in France. Nickel offers a "payment account for everyone". No own agencies but client contact through local press shops or tobacconists.

Karel Baert - CEO at Febelfin

Febelfin represents the Belgian financial sector. It acts as the interlocutor and spokesperson with policy makers, regulators, professional federations and interest groups. It represents some 250 financial institutions, and accounts for some 55,700 direct jobs. In addition, it is committed to a socially responsible and transparent banking system.

Inge Ampe - CCO at Argenta

Argenta is one of the established banks in Belgium. It remains true to its basic philosophy and core values: close, entrepreneurial, pragmatic and simple. More and more work is being done digitally. Nevertheless, for Argenta the branch network remains of crucial importance for providing personal advice to customers. Argenta remains strongly committed to proximity and personal contact.
