Chief Executive Officer

Cleanverse International Pte Ltd

Ceridwen Choo is Co-founder & CEO of Cleanverse International, which has developed a compliance trust infrastructure that programs the core pillars of TradFi financial governance onto every value transfer conducted on public blockchains. The interlocking of verified identity and verified assets enforces asset eligibility checks before value moves, and embeds travel rule compliance in real-time.

With over 20 years of experience in managing retail banking and payments businesses at notable organizations including DBS, HSBC, Railsbank and Mastercard, she has helmed strategic accountabilities on driving business profitability through revenue growth and product innovation. Previously CEO of DCS Innov (an intermediary of Diners Club Singapore), she launched Singapore’s first payment token issued by a non-bank financial institution licensed under the Banking Act. This led the 50-year old institution into its next growth phase as a leader that connects TradFi to DeFi through product innovation.

At Cleanverse, she is shaping the future of trusted, transparent and compliant on-chain finance that will be led by AI agentic platforms, ready for the next era of progammable finance.

About this session

Stablecoins have crossed $300 billion in circulation. Tokenized deposits are live at various global banks. Yet for all the headline numbers, the hard question remains unanswered: how do programmable money instruments actually integrate with the treasury operations, correspondent banking relationships, and payments infrastructure that keep traditional finance running?
This session convenes senior practitioners from banks, corporates, and digital asset firms to examine the real friction points - legal, operational, and technical - where digital money collides with TradFi plumbing, and where the integration is showing progress. Participants will discuss strategies to scale the integration of digital assets within traditional operations, including updating risk management frameworks, adhering to regulatory requirements, and architecting interoperability across systems.

About this session

Regulation is one thing; implementing new rules across live systems, global entities, and market infrastructures is another entirely. While firms grapple with operationalising evolving regimes such as MiCA and the GENIUS Act, policymakers and standard-setting bodies are simultaneously reshaping the principles that underpin tomorrow's financial market infrastructures (FMI).

This session brings together policymakers, central bankers, and industry practitioners to examine where gaps between policy intent, global standards, and operational reality are widest, how industry, policymakers, and regulators can better coordinate in an environment where rules and infrastructure are being built in parallel, and what the future of the institutional digital assets ecosystem will look like.
