Jennifer Lassiter is Head of Digital Assets for the Americas and Europe at Standard Chartered, where she leads the Bank’s work at the intersection of strategy, innovation, and global financial infrastructure.
She focuses on how large, regulated institutions can adapt to new technology, changing client needs, and evolving policy expectations while continuing to operate safely and at scale. Jennifer works across business, policy, risk, and technology teams to turn complex change into practical strategies for institutional markets.
Her perspective is that the next era of finance will be led not by technology alone, but by institutions with the discipline to turn change into trust, scale, and tangible impact.
Roundtable Room 2, Ground Floor
Open
Tokenization is reshaping wholesale payments, foreign exchange, and securities. As adoption grows across platforms and jurisdictions, it introduces fragmentation, operational complexity, and coordination challenges that may affect liquidity, settlement certainty, and systemic stability.
This roundtable will examine the governance, control frameworks, and cross-border coordination needed to ensure trust, integrity, and resilience in tokenized financial markets. It will explore practical approaches to embed compliance, interoperability, and accountability, advancing trust in tokenization, and enabling it to scale.
