      Three inflection points reshaping European finance

      Three policy moments land in Europe this year - their consequences run through European finance, and every global firm operating in it.

      97%

      of the global stablecoin market is USD-pegged.

      Will Europe's answer arrive in time?

      • Banks and stablecoin issuers weighing their MiCA strategy
      • Payment networks rebuilding for agentic commerce
      • Corporate treasurers choosing what to settle in

      The common settlement asset that emerges decides who builds Europe's payments rails, and who profits from them.

      2026

      MiCA has landed. The AI Act follows.

      Will Europe's rulebook hold at scale?

      • Digital asset firms in the MiCA licensing queue
      • European banks and fintechs deploying AI in credit scoring, KYC, and customer onboarding
      • Global firms whose access to 450 million EU customers depends on compliance

      Europe's 2026 enforcement windows decide whether the rulebook delivers, and which firms can build under it.

      73%

      EU equity markets sit at 73% of GDP. US markets at 270%.

      Can Europe close the gap to compete?

      • European banks counting on securitisation revival
      • Pension funds and insurers redirecting long-term capital
      • Founders weighing whether to list at home or in New York

      The Savings and Investments Union action plan decides whether €11 trillion in European deposits actually moves, and whether European industry has the capital to compete at home.

      • “Point Zero Forum brings together policymakers, innovators, and institutions in a way that few platforms can. By connecting Asia’s innovation momentum with Europe’s regulatory and market discussions, GFTN enables the kind of dialogue the global payments ecosystem urgently needs."

        Douglas Douglas Feagin President Ant International

      • "Point Zero Forum is the perfect venue to learn about the forward-thinking initiatives, balanced regulatory oversight, and strategic geopolitical position of Singapore and Switzerland. The roundtables and discussions enabled cooperation between incumbents and disruptors in the financial space, which is a difficult feat to achieve elsewhere."

        Lily-1 Lily Z. King Chief Operating Officer Cobo

      • "Point Zero Forum stands out for the quality and seniority of the people in the room. By convening regulators, central banks, and industry leaders, it creates the conditions for real progress in financial market infrastructure."
