What iGnite is

GCash iGnite is the annual innovation summit run by GCash, the Philippines' largest financial app. The 2026 edition runs on 24 July at SMX Aura in Manila, under the theme Hyperdrive. Around 3,000 people attend — product and engineering leaders, CIOs, compliance teams, merchants and regulators.

The talk · 20 July

Every agent you deploy is a new identity in your business.

Perennial's session on the Intelligent Trust track looks at what happens to security once the thing making the request isn't a person — and what has to change before your risk team can live with it.

The Future of Digital Trust From human identity to AI identity

Enterprise security was built around people — logins, roles, approvals. Agents don't fit that shape. They act on their own, at machine speed, across systems that were never designed to ask who is calling. The session covers what identity, policy and audit look like when the actor is an agent, and how to put those controls in before the agents arrive, not after.

What Perennial is bringing to the floor.

Four things, all running inside regulated financial businesses today. Come and put your own process against any of them.

I

Agentic Trust

Identity, policy and an audit trail for every agent you run. Who the agent is, what it may touch, and what it did — answerable at any point, including months later.

II

Onboarding and eKYC agents

Document reading, identity checks and fraud screening in one flow. Fewer drop-offs at signup, and a record of how each decision was reached.

III

Fraud, risk and credit decisioning

Real-time calls that hold a line on losses without turning good customers away — and show their reasoning when your partner bank asks for it.

IV

Chat and voice support agents

Agents wired into the systems of record and bound to your policies, closing the request end to end instead of handing it back to a queue.

Anyone can put an agent on a stage. Getting one past a risk committee is the actual work.
