Yesterday evening, nearly 200 experts from Luxembourg’s banking, financial, technology and public sectors gathered for an ABBL conference dedicated to the future EU Digital Identity Wallet.

And one thing became very clear throughout the discussions: this is about far more than regulation.

The EUDI Wallet has the potential to fundamentally reshape how citizens and companies interact online. From opening a bank account in minutes, to securely sharing verified data across borders, signing documents digitally, simplifying corporate onboarding, reducing fraud risks and strengthening trust in an increasingly AI-driven world.

As highlighted during the event, the real challenge is no longer technology alone. It is about 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆, 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁, 𝗮𝗱𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀 𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗺𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝗘𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲.

Key discussions throughout the afternoon explored:
🔹 The future of seamless and secure digital onboarding for banks and financial institutions
🔹 The role of selective disclosure and user-controlled data sharing in strengthening privacy and trust
🔹 The interaction between digital identity, payments and Strong Customer Authentication under PSD2/PSR
🔹 The growing importance of interoperability across Europe’s future wallet ecosystem
🔹 Emerging opportunities around corporate onboarding, KYB and the future EU Business Wallet
🔹 The operational, regulatory and adoption challenges that still need to be addressed before 2027

The event also showcased concrete demonstrations of future onboarding journeys and explored how the wallet could help reduce fraud risks while improving customer experience and simplifying compliance processes.

One message strongly resonated throughout the conference: digital identity is rapidly becoming a cornerstone of Europe’s digital future.

A sincere thank you to all speakers and participants for the quality of the discussions and the strong engagement throughout the evening:
