The event will take place in Radisson Blu Frankfurt on September 23, 2026.
This year's BAI InnovationsDay will focus on technology, innovation, and the latest trends shaping the fund industry. The event will open with a keynote by Markus Krause, Head of the Money and Capital Markets Division in the Ministry of Finance of the State of Saxony-Anhalt. Drawing on first-hand experience, he will share insights into the successful issuance of the first blockchain-based crypto security by a German federal state under the German Electronic Securities Act (eWpG). His presentation will highlight the organisational, legal, technical, and capital markets challenges that were overcome throughout the process, from the initial concept to the final issuance, in close collaboration with rating agencies, investors, and market infrastructure providers.
Another keynote speaker is Prof. Dr. Reiner Braun from the Technical University of Munich. In his presentation, "Behind the NAV: What Fund Managers Really Communicate in Their Quarterly Reports," he will explore how qualitative analysis of fund reports can uncover valuable insights beyond the numbers.
