How regulated businesses can navigate uneven adoption, evolving requirements, and the transition to wallet-based identity

The EU Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet) is moving from policy and pilots toward real-world deployment — but not every EU market will be ready at the same time.

For banks, fintechs, exchanges, marketplaces, and other regulated businesses, this means there won't be a single “go-live” moment. Businesses will need to support wallet-based identity alongside existing KYC and fraud prevention flows, while adapting to different levels of adoption and readiness across markets.

Join Sumsub experts for a practical look at what the EUDI Wallet rollout means for compliance, risk, and fraud teams — and how to prepare without overbuilding.

What you'll learn
– How the EUDI Wallet works and what changes when identity moves from document uploads to verified digital credentials and selective disclosure
– Why the rollout will be a patchwork, with EU countries moving at different speeds and wallet availability varying significantly between markets
– What changes for KYC and onboarding, including how wallet credentials fit alongside existing document and biometric verification
– Where new fraud risks emerge, from attacks on the wallet itself to the risk of fraudulent information being embedded in an otherwise valid credential
– Why the wallet matters beyond onboarding, including identity checks, high-risk actions, authentication, and ongoing customer relationships
– How to prepare for the transition without rebuilding your entire verification infrastructure before wallet adoption is established

Why attend?

The EUDI Wallet is not simply a new way for customers to verify their identity. It introduces a different identity architecture — and a new operating environment for regulated businesses.

With adoption expected to develop unevenly across Europe, compliance and risk teams need to plan for a period in which wallet and non-wallet verification coexist.

This session will help you understand what is changing, where the risks are, and what practical steps you can take now to build a flexible approach to EUDI Wallet readiness.

Who Should Attend?
– Compliance leaders
– Risk managers
– Fraud prevention professionals
– AML and financial crime teams
– Legal and regulatory teams
– Product and operations leaders at regulated businesses
