Dear friends
On behalf of Reserve Bank of India, it is my pleasure to extend you a warm welcome to the International Seminar on 'Adoption of ISO 20022 Messaging Standards for RTGS'.
In the world of payments processing, the role played by standards in information exchange between the participants can be compared to the role of language in communication between people. We, at Reserve Bank of India, are treating this Seminar as an opportunity to share our experience in adoption of standards for RTGS and obtain feedback from the international community in this regard. We trust the Seminar will turn out to be a great learning experience for all of us.
We are privileged to have eminent speakers and panelists from the European Central Bank, ISO 20022 Forum, Deutsche Bundesbank, Central Bank of Brazil and South African Reserve Bank at the Seminar to lead our learning experience.
Let us all use this opportunity to interact with the speakers and participants from other countries.I wish all of you a memorable stay at Pune.
