Digital Asset Strategies for Financial Institutions - Hosted by ASIFMA, BitGo and Gibson Dunn
Digital assets have moved from the margins to the centre of the conversation in institutional finance. Banks, asset managers, custodians and market infrastructure providers across Asia are now weighing how to build, partner and manage risk as tokenisation, stablecoins and regulated custody mature.
ASIFMA, BitGo and Gibson Dunn invite you to an afternoon panel and networking session with senior leaders from across the industry. Our speakers will share how institutions are approaching digital asset strategy in practice. They’ll cover custody, risk management, regulation and the operating models that make these strategies work. You’ll leave with practical perspectives and a room full of peers to continue the conversation with over drinks.
