AFIA is pleased to partner with NETSOL to deliver an in-depth discussion on the future of asset, equipment, SME and automotive finance in Australia as the sector enters a period of structural transformation.

Lenders are operating in an environment shaped by increasing complexity, evolving regulatory expectations, and mounting pressure to deliver faster, more consistent decisions across multiple channels and asset classes. In 2026, asset finance is not slowing down — it is evolving.

This webinar will explore how the market is shifting and why technology — when thoughtfully designed and implemented — has become a critical enabler of scale, resilience and long-term competitiveness. The discussion will focus on real market dynamics, operational realities and the architectural choices that will define successful finance platforms in the years ahead.

Key Discussion Points

• Why asset finance is structurally evolving and how complexity, regulation and multi-channel origination are reshaping lender operations

• The convergence of asset, SME, equipment and automotive finance models — and what this means for operating frameworks

• Why operational agility, speed and decision consistency are emerging as competitive differentiators

• The growing role of technology platforms in supporting compliance, continuous change and ecosystem integration

• How AI can deliver meaningful value — when underpinned by clean data, governance and strong oversight

• The importance of composable, API-first architectures in enabling long-term adaptability

• Why execution capability and domain expertise matter as much as strategy in a high-change environment

This session is ideal for executives and professionals across asset finance, automotive finance, SME lending, credit risk, operations, technology, strategy and digital transformation within AFIA member organisations.
