About the Summit

The ET NOW BFSI Leadership Summit 2025 is a strategic extension of the acclaimed ET NOW Global Business Summit—Asia’s most influential platform for policy, business, and leadership discourse. Branded under this prestigious umbrella, the ET NOW BFSI Leadership Summit is not just another industry congregation. It is a call to leadership—a forum where vision meets execution.

This year, the summit is anchored around the theme: Decoding megatrends Shaping Global Financial Systems — which captures a pivotal moment in our economic evolution.
