[Webinar] Are Banks Prepared for Virtual Asset Custody?
The G.A.I.N. returns for its 4th Edition, this time open to a wider audience of institutional leaders.
Virtual asset custody is one of the most consequential infrastructure decisions banks face today. Yet most financial institutions are navigating the governance, compliance, and operational requirements with limited precedent and uneven internal alignment.
This session brings together former regulators, banking advisors, and digital asset infrastructure specialists to assess the current state of bank readiness and what institutional-grade custody actually requires.
Curated for senior leaders across risk, compliance, technology, operations, and strategy.
