DLT and Digital Assets

Enabling access to Digital Assets
Use cases for DLT and digital assets in the financial service industry
are numerous and range from brokerage to investment advice and asset
servicing. While the choice of service offering depends on a bank’s client focus and business model, digital assets custody and transfer capabilities are prerequisites for any of the above. Forming the backbone of an institutional digital assets infrastructure, digital assets custody is a strict requirement for storing tokens. Moreover, investors expect to be able to seamlessly move digital assets between institutions, making transfer capabilities compulsory.
When setting up a digital assets custody and transfer offering, a solid strategy and value proposition, rapid implementation as well as a technologically sound solution are amongst the main challenges. Moreover, banks should be aware of the specific risks related to these use cases. Such risks are often related to technological or regulatory uncertainty and should be proactively mitigated.
To offer insights on why banks should familiarize themselves with the digital assets business, showcase which options exist for developing a digital assets offering and highlight what challenges and risks should be considered, zeb is organizing its fourth virtual zeb.Business Event together with experts from the national and international DLT and digital assets industry.
Please join zeb and various industry experts to discuss the following questions:
- What are the benefits of setting up a basic digital assets
offering right now? - What are cornerstones of a digital assets custody and
transfer offering? - What are the main risks related to digital assets custody
and transfers? - How can related risks be efficiently mitigated?
