I was pleased to moderate and speak at the GARP Virtual Risk Convention, at its first ever cryptofinance panel entitled “This Time, It's Serious: The Rise of DigitalAssets and Cryptocurrencies”.
With colleagues from the Financial Stability Board, Bitstamp, PayPal and Cornell University we discussed and debated the rise of digital assets, their risks and regulation, and what it will take for banks to fully embrace cryptocurrency.
GARP is the world’s leading professional organization for risk managers with over 250’000 members in more than 190 countries.
I was also particularly pleased to see that GARP, which I contributed to launch back in the nineties globally and in Switzerland, has managed to grow into a truly global and impactful association.
