SC Ventures Lab Crawl Panel 2: The Future of Banking - Corporate and Institutional
About Event
For corporates and institutions, slow money is costly. Cross-border settlement takes days, large tickets don’t fit faster rails, and liquidity is tied up in buffers and pre-funding. AI agents, tokenised assets and programmable money are starting to change how value moves across markets. This panel brings together leaders in emerging payments and digital infrastructure to look at what’s live today, what’s scaling next, and how the institutional banking model may need to adapt.
On the agenda:
24/7 money, 9-to-5 institutions: what happens to liquidity and treasury operations when value settles in minutes, at any hour
Stablecoins, tokenised deposits and tokenised money market funds: which instruments will carry which flows
Programmable money: when treasury and trade rules (release on delivery, sweep above a threshold) are written into the settlement itself
AI agents in treasury: from forecasting cash positions to initiating and settling transactions within set limits
What stays a bank’s job: balance sheet, credit, trust and compliance in an automated, always-on market
Speakers:
Mark Willis, Managing Director, Head of Emerging Payments, Standard Chartered
Ying-Ying Tan, Global Head of Securities Services and Digital Assets, Standard Chartered

Harald Eltvedt, Operating Partner, SC Ventures (Moderator)
