MONEY IS MERCENARY – THE GRAVITATIONAL PULL OF DEFI
Decentralized Finance [DEFI] has well and truly arrived on the global finance stage and – we surmise – is here to stay. DEFI growth over the last 18 months has been impressive: the total number of users increased 14-fold and global Total Value Locked in DEFI-embedded smart contracts exceeded USD170bn in September 2021, up from USD6bn in the previous year.

SDX Fintech Conversation Series - interview with Dr Peter T. Golder
Dr Peter T. Golder is the Chief Commercial Officer at SDX. Previously, he was the CEO of Dar Al Istithmar, Deutsche Bank’s Islamic Structuring business as well as the Global Head of Strategy for Equities, and the CEO of Euroclear’s Data business. Peter was the Founder and CEO of 776 Capital, a systematic quantitative investment manager and a Managing Director of a corporate finance boutique where he worked extensively with family offices on alternative investment opportunities. Peter also spent time as a management consultant working with leading financial institutions on strategy and capital markets related topics.
On 18th November 2021, SDX announced the world’s first issuance of a digital-native bond in a fully regulated environment. We thought this an excellent time to ask Peter a few questions about digital market infrastructures and the potential benefits that they can deliver.

Interoperability Considerations for Digital Financial Assets
We would like to introduce a broader set of interoperability considerations that provide a framework for Financial Institutions [FIs] as they contemplate their foray into digital assets. Key to any interoperability discussion in Digital Assets, we believe, is the notion of Asset Transparency and Asset Interoperability rather than a focus on DLT interoperability at a mainly technical level.
