The attempt to modernize oversight of America’s financial markets and the simultaneous rise of bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, and the digital dollar are disrupting financial services as we know them. This roundtable will examine the potential for crypto/blockchain networks to transform the financial sector and what that means for consumers and institutions.
We’ll hear from Christopher Giancarlo, former chairman of the CFTC, who led the call to Congress to respect the new generation’s interest in cryptocurrency. He’ll be joined by Maureen O’Hara, Robert W. Purcell Professor of Finance and Professor of Economics at the Cornell SC Johnson College of Business, who is an economist; an expert in market microstructure, financial markets, and cryptocurrencies/blockchain; and the first woman to serve as president of the American Finance Association. The panel will be moderated by Rob Krugman, chief digital officer of Broadridge, a global fintech leader providing critical infrastructure that powers investing, corporate governance, and communications.
