Anthony Clark-Jones
Head of Digital Assets (Products & Services)
UBS Investment Bank
At UBS Investment Bank, Anthony and his team design and deliver compliant, commercially-focused, digital products & services that integrate with existing business models while unlocking new capability at scale - grounded in commercial reality, not just theory.
Operating at the intersection of clients, regulation, and technology, Anthony and his team take ideas from concept through to production - delivering outcomes in complex, regulated environments where most initiatives fail to scale.
Anthony also leads Investment Bank digital assets strategy and contributes to Group-wide prioritization, helping determine where real value exists - and where it currently does not - across this fast-evolving space.
Over the last 20 years, Anthony has led large, matrixed teams (up to 250+ people), building and scaling new products & services across Financial Services and other industry sectors.
Alongside his role as Head of Digital Assets (Products & Services) at UBS Investment Bank, Anthony co-chairs the UBS Veterans’ Network and contributes to leadership development, inclusion, and community initiatives.

About this session
Cross-border FX settlement is entering a decisive new phase. As digital money, new settlement models, and emerging infrastructures reshape the global financial system, central banks are moving from theory to practical engagement - domestically, bilaterally, and multilaterally.
This panel brings together leading central banks to explore how the future market structure for cross-border FX PvP settlement is being shaped in practice. The discussion will examine key design choices: decentralised versus centralised orchestration, bilateral interoperability versus federated protocols, and how to move from experimentation to production without creating new fragmentation.
Join the conversation to hear how central banks and progressive market participants are modelling, testing, and guiding the next generation of safe, interoperable, and scalable cross-border FX settlement.
