Overview
About Agentic Payments and Treasury
Agentic payments and treasury represent the next stage of financial automation, where AI agents can initiate payments, manage liquidity, optimise working capital and execute financial decisions within defined controls. This shift has the potential to make financial operations faster and more efficient, while introducing critical questions around identity, authority, security, compliance and accountability.
Why This Summit Matters
As AI moves from providing recommendations to taking autonomous action, financial institutions and enterprises must prepare their technology, governance and risk frameworks. The Agentic Payments & Treasury Summit 2026 provides a timely forum for industry leaders to examine these challenges, share practical insights and help shape the trusted infrastructure needed for the future of autonomous finance.
Agentic Payments & Treasury Summit 2026
Join senior leaders from banking, payments, treasury, fintech and enterprise technology for a focused afternoon exploring the future of autonomous finance.
AI agents are rapidly evolving from productivity tools into economic participants capable of initiating transactions, managing financial workflows, optimising liquidity and making consequential decisions within defined controls. This summit will examine what that shift means for financial institutions, enterprises and technology providers—and the infrastructure, identity, governance and risk frameworks required to make agentic finance secure, trusted and accountable.
Key discussions will address:
How AI agents will initiate payments and autonomous financial actions
The future of cash, liquidity, working-capital and yield optimisation
Identity, intent, authority and permission layers for AI agents
Risk, fraud, compliance and transaction controls
The infrastructure required to support trusted agentic payments and treasury
How financial institutions and enterprises can prepare for the transition from AI assistance to autonomous action
