Just when many financial institutions are getting comfortable with instant payments, a new question is emerging: What happens when money itself becomes programmable? For financial institutions, the challenge is not deciding between instant payments and stablecoins. It's understanding how today's modernization decisions will determine the ability to compete tomorrow.
The webinar will cover:
How instant payments are laying the groundwork for digital money.
Why stablecoins are gaining momentum with recent regulatory developments.
How leading institutions are overcoming common payments modernization roadblocks.
What it takes to support both real-time payments and digital assets.
Steps to prepare for emerging payment rails while maximizing existing investments.
