GBBC CEO speaks at FT’s Crypto and Digital Assets Summit on “Crypto in emerging markets – will greater financial inclusion bring greater systemic risk?” alongside:
- Susan Friedman, Head of Public Policy, Ripple
- Moderator: Jillian Godsil, Editor, Blockleaders.io
Panel Time: Tue Apr 26, 9:15 AM – 9:55 AM GMT +1 / 4:15 AM – 4:55 AM Your local time (40 Min)
Panel Description:
The International Monetary Fund recently warned of growing ‘cryptoization’ of local economies, risking financial stability in economically underdeveloped jurisdictions. El Salvador recently became the first country to offer bitcoin as legal tender. P2P payments are integral to the growth of financial inclusion in emerging markets, but do they come at the expense of sound macroeconomic policy? How will local businesses and banks adapt in their practices to ensure stability? Are stablecoins a route towards a stable payments infrastructure?
