Digital Assets, Stablecoins and Tokenisation: Risk, Structure and Institutional Considerations

ABOUT THE PROGRAMME

Digital assets are increasingly becoming part of the broader financial ecosystem, with financial institutions and capital market intermediaries increasingly assessing their relevance through evolving market practices, client demand, structured products, derivative exposures and other capital market activities. As these developments gain momentum, market participants need to evaluate not only their potential applications and opportunities, but also the market structures, risks and governance considerations involved.

This programme provides a practical, framework-driven overview of digital assets from an institutional perspective. Participants will explore the structure of digital asset markets, the role of digital asset derivatives in risk transmission, and the functions of stablecoins and tokenisation within financial markets.

The programme also examines the implications for financial market infrastructure, treasury, custody, clearing and settlement, as well as the role of risk management, compliance and governance frameworks in supporting effective oversight. It further explores how digital assets, stablecoins and tokenisation may support innovation, capital formation and operational efficiency within the capital market.
