About This Course

Separate fact from hype and gain the knowledge needed to evaluate stablecoins and tokenized deposits with confidence. This practical, non-technical webinar helps banking leaders understand how these instruments differ, assess their potential benefits and risks, and identify appropriate next steps for their institution. Develop a shared understanding of digital money across executive, board, operations, compliance, and technology teams, recognize practical opportunities for payments, settlement, treasury services, and customer offerings, and identify material risks and dependencies before committing resources. You’ll leave with a clear approach to assessing institutional readiness, along with an executive comparison guide, a digital money decision framework, and a regulatory reference guide.
