  Switzerland and worldwide is in transition. The European banking sector i
 s still recovering from the aftermath of the Lehman Brothers default in 20
 08. New regulatory frameworks such as Basel III and MiFID II put banks und
 er scrutiny. Swiss specific challenges are the reform of the banking secre
 cy law and the extreme low and even negative interest rate regime. Financi
 al disintermediation and digitization put further pressure on traditional 
 banking business margins but offer the potential for innovation and new ba
 nking business models.\nThe 7th annual Swissquote Conference will feature 
 the latest research and insights on banking and finance provided by leadin
 g experts and scholars in the field. The event addresses academics and pra
 ctitioners alike\, and shall foster the interaction among individuals and 
 across institutions.
