The world’s leading institutional conference is back in the heart of New York on 13-14 May, where capital markets transformation will be examined in depth, from issuance and market structure to settlement, custody, liquidity, and regulatory alignment.
This year’s event will be hosted by Deutsche Bank with the underlying foundation of Global Asset Digitization projects. It is the only venue where the commercialization of tokenizing assets is discussed comprehensively and at scale.
Digital Assets Week is institution-led and designed to support substantive dialogue between market participants and regulators on implementation, risk management, and market structure as digital assets increasingly intersect with traditional capital markets.
The New York conference typically gathers 400 to 500 participants, with the audience highly curated to ensure senior institutional representation. Participants across the series include the majority of large banks and asset managers, alongside policymakers, supervisory authorities, and infrastructure providers actively engaged in regulated market development.
This year’s action-packed agenda includes a range of panel discussions and roundtables covering topics such as:
- Moving Public Markets ‘On Chain’ – Is This ‘Hype’ or ‘Reality’? (What Does This Mean in Reality?)
- Tokenized Private Markets and Secondary Liquidity – Where Have We Really Got To?
- The Vision of 24/7 Markets and Real-Time Settlement – Challenges and Opportunities?
- Tokenized ‘Yield’, ‘Deposits’, ‘MMFs’, ‘CBDCs’, ‘Rolling Contracts’… – Where is Product Innovation Taking Us? And where do stablecoins really fit?
- Tokenized Private Markets – Which Assets Are Moving On-Chain First and Why?
- Interoperability, Standards, Legacy Systems, Regional Boundaries – The Challenges for Tokenization Scale?
- Institutional Blockchain Adoption – Is It Re-Engineering the Post-Trade and Back-Office Space?
