Tokenized Property Marketplace

Tokenized Property Marketplace

Tokenization is the process of digitally representing assets, rights, or items of value through a smart contract on a blockchain, has gained significant attention in recent years.

By enabling assets to be divided into smaller tradable units, tokenization has the potential to revolutionize the funding and capital model across many different industries. What may have previously been a non-bankable real-world asset can find its way into the financial ecosystem, becoming accessible to a wider range of investors.

The ability to divide previously indivisible assets allows for easier and more affordable access to digital assets, as users no longer need to purchase an entire unit of an asset to participate in its ownership. This means that smaller investors can participate in investments that were previously only available to larger investors, thus democratizing access to investment opportunities like real estate for instance.

In view of these, we've invited Mr. Robert Hoving, the Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of “GORO”, a very promising digital platform from Indonesia which has the objective of democratizing real estate investment for more fractional ownership opportunities as he explains to us the value proposition of real estate tokenization and its significant relevance to our digital economy.

Crypto Exchange

Crypto Exchange

Most traditional investment brokers do not yet offer exposure to crypto for trading purposes unlike equities or bonds.
Therefore, cryptocurrency exchanges were developed as a simple way for investors to buy digital assets. Even though the majority of these exchanges have similar offerings, such as spot markets to tokens like bitcoin and Ether (Ethereum) for instance, there is a wide variety based on the amount of tokens offered, together with other available services and security.
Moreover, while some utilize traditional centralized corporate structures, others embrace the industry’s decentralized ethos by avoiding the appearance of having any specific people being in charge.
In view of these, we’ve invited Mr. Lukasz Zeligowski, the Co-Founder and Executive Director of KANGA Exchange, a very impressive crypto exchange based from Gdansk, Poland as he shares with us his insightful views on the value proposition of a cryptocurrency exchange and its significant relevance to our digital economy.

Matrix of Innovation

Matrix of Innovation

The economic volatility and uncertainty, higher cost of funding, and the need to diversify supply chains are particular concerns for businesses operating in the Asia Pacific region. But what sets the region apart is the access to enormous technology talent pools that are adept at resolving problems through the use of artificial intelligence, process automation, and data analysis among others.

One result of this is the region’s leadership in adopting new real-time payments methods, plus API and cloud-based payments technologies, which has led to the emergence of popular digital wallets and sophisticated digital banking providers. These in turn are transforming e-commerce and leading the swift rise of new business approaches, such as direct-to-consumer, usage-based pricing, and subscription models. Meanwhile, online platforms that once catered to a single niche are expanding through partnerships with firms in other sectors, giving rise to multi-industry, region-wide ecosystems.

This has made the region a cradle of innovation when it comes to financial technology, and a must-follow space for those interested in where digital adoption go next. In view of these, we've invited Mr. Umang Moondra, Chief Executive Officer of APIX platform as he walks us through the significant relevance of innovation into our digital economy. https://apixplatform.com https://www.synfindo.com

Real Estate Blockchain

Real Estate Blockchain

Blockchain technology has impacted the real estate industry in a variety of ways, including offering a new means for buyers and sellers to connect with one another. Moreover, Blockchain could be used to cut intermediaries out of the real estate transaction process, thereby reducing costs. This technology could also help to codify the practice of fractional ownership of real estate.


Global real estate is worth hundreds of trillion of dollars, but is dominated by the wealthy and large corporations. Through blockchain technology, it is possible that more people will be able to access the market where transactions can be made more transparent, secure and equitable. Real estate transactions may eventually become truly peer to peer activities with blockchain powered platforms doing most of the work.

In view of these, we've invited Joshua Kagan, CEO and Co-Founder of BONFIRE, a very promising US FinTech company based in Denver, Colorado as he explains to us the value proposition of Blockchain technology in a real estate industry as well as its significant relevance to our digital economy.

Breaking Through Disruption

Breaking Through Disruption

Being relevant – to the market and to consumers – is paramount for businesses. In today’s rapidly evolving marketplace, companies and individuals alike must keep up with new digital trends if they are to continue meeting consumer expectations. Traditional business models are being pushed to the wayside, and many organizations are struggling to keep pace or, worse yet, resisting change altogether.

How a company responds to these changes and trends will determine its ability to survive or thrive. Even if it has embraced digital transformation, knowing what changes to make, when to make them, and how to manage updated business processes and outcomes is a significant challenge.

For instance, Amazon, Uber and Netflix are classic examples of companies that combine these elements and embody the very face of digital disruption. Both platforms capitalize on new technologies and changing consumer habits, and both have significantly impacted traditional businesses and systems in their respective industries. Their disruptive presence – and rapid rise – forced established and entrenched companies to rethink their tried-and-true models.

In view of these, we've invited once again Mr. Ian Rae, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Wyzepay from United Kingdom as he explains to us the exceptional features of the platform presently disrupting the consumer and B2B payment sector in London as well as its significant relevance to our digital economy.

Predictive Analytics

Predictive Analytics

As with most aspects of digital transformation, the outlook for data analysis appears to demonstrate that adoption is heading in one direction— UP.

Business leaders, all the way up to the C-Suite, are more inclined than ever to invest in predictive analytics. McKinsey found that 70% of business leaders agree that predictive analytics has changed their respective industries in at least in a moderate way.

Combine that with the efficiency and competitive benefits that can be achieved through these solutions, and it’s almost certain that data analytics platforms will be the norm, rather than the exception.

In view of these, we've invited Jaap Vink, a seasoned predictive analytics professional and the executive consultant of Zeno Analytics based from Zeist, The Netherlands as explains to us the significant relevance of Predictive Analytics to our digital economy.

FX on AI

FX on AI

Foreign exchange trading, also known as FX or forex trading, is one of the world’s largest and most influential markets regarding trading volume, value, and liquidity.
As new technologies emerge, so have forex methods and strategies. With the advent of artificial intelligence and machine learning in science, forex traders and experts have learned to adopt this new technology to improve trading and make their strategies more efficient.
However, this field also comes with its own set of challenges and risks. Currency values are constantly fluctuating, and many traders resort to using leverage or executing larger trades to make money. While this method can bring enormous gains, it can also result in significant losses.
For this reason, many traders have turned to AI to help them manage the risks involved in forex trading. Whether you’re an independent trader or are part of an FX affiliate programs, trading bots have become exceedingly popular. These bots aid in automating trades based on specific parameters and trading preferences.
Despite the more recent mainstream boom of AI technology, technological and automation tools are not new in the forex industry. Many traders and brokers have already incorporated some form of AI into their strategies.
In view of these, we've invited, Mr. Melvin Lim, the Founder and Managing Director of Laze Trader Pte. Ltd., a very promising Singapore FinTech company as he walk us through the relevance of artificial intelligence trading on FX market and its value proposition to our digital economy.

Emerging Digital Finance

Emerging Digital Finance

According to the survey from McKinsey, adoption of digital banking in emerging markets has caught up with that in developed markets. Between 2017 and 2021, the share of consumers in Asia–Pacific emerging markets actively using digital banking increased sharply, rising 33 percentage points from 54 percent in 2017 to 88 percent in 2021. The level of digital adoption among consumers in developed Asia–Pacific markets has remained stable at approximately 90 percent. The shift to digital banking has happened quickly and was likely accelerated by existing trends—such as increasing use of digital channels for diverse transactions, including banking, and broader use of teleconferencing/video calls in place of face-to-face meetings—that have intensified during the COVID-19 pandemic. Survey results suggest that the high levels of digital adoption are likely to hold as the pandemic subsides. As Asia-Pacific consumers turn increasingly to digital channels to manage all aspects of their finances, incumbent banks must weigh carefully the strategic questions above and chart their course forward. To thrive in this increasingly dynamic market, each bank will need to build (or acquire) the technology, talent, and ways of working that will enable it to scale distinctive and relevant innovations quickly and at low cost. As such, we've invited Gloria Soo, Founding Partner of Almond Tech Pte. Ltd. based in Singapore as she walk us through the significant relevance of Financial Technology solutions to our digital economy.

Cashless Society

Cashless Society


From barter to cash to checks to online banking, money is an evolving technology that has been part of human history for thousands of years. While cash is expected to remain a significant payment instrument in the near future, factors such as “contactless” pay systems, increasing mobile penetration, and high costs of cash like ATM fees for individuals, cash storage for businesses, currency printing for governments, among others are prompting society to reconsider its ubiquity. Some experts support less-cash operations, arguing that high denomination notes should be phased out as smaller bills slowly fall towards disuse. 

We can categorically say that we are likely approaching a less-cash future, not a completely cashless future. And, while progress has been made in this transition, it has hardly been universal or uniform. A migration to a cashless economy includes considerations ranging from the purely financial to those social in nature. Consequently, a country’s specific technological, financial, and social situations will inform its specific benefits, drawbacks, and approach to such a transition.

In view of these, we've invited once again, Kannan Swaminathan, Chief Executive at WhiteBridge Consulting LLC to discuss the value proposition of Cashless initiatives in our digital economy.

Wealthy Crypto Holders

Wealthy Crypto Holders

Bitcoin's stratospheric rise since 2009 has created a surprising and diverse set of millionaires and billionaires. But the interesting question, who owns the most bitcoin? It is really difficult to say for certain who owns the most bitcoin, as wallet addresses are anonymous in that they are not associated with the account owner's name. The only way to tell is if the owner has publicized their holdings.
Many bitcoin holders have made their wealth by creating products to grow Bitcoin's still-nascent ecosystem. For example, some have created exchanges for trading cryptocurrency and the derivatives that have emerged from it.
Our sincere gratitude to Youssof Althouki for sharing his valuable insights as well as his challenges and opportunities on cryptocurrency and its significant relevance to our digital economy.

Crypto Travel Rule Policy

Crypto Travel Rule Policy

What does Crypto Travel Rule mean for you?

The measure is essential to prevent bad actors from using digital assets to launder money. It affects everyone who dabbles in cryptocurrencies from exchanges to everyday investors.

Almost three years after the controversial "travel rule" guidance was issued by the Financial Action Tax Force or FATF, regulators and virtual asset service providers or VASP are still coming to terms with the economic and technical challenges of implementing these rules. While VASPs, which include but are not limited to crypto exchanges, wallet services and crypto custodial solutions, are the primary focus of this regulation, mass implementation is expected to slowly but surely impact how you interact with crypto.

In view of these, we've invited once again a seasoned banker, a brilliant crypto compliance consultant and an exceptional AML (Anti-Money Laundering) transaction monitoring advisor, Mr. Dominic Gee presently based in Asia Pacific region as he walk us through the critical importance of the "Crypto Travel Rule Policy" and its significant relevance to our digital economy.

Algorithmic Liabilities

Algorithmic Liabilities

The learning ability of AI systems means that they no longer have to be completely programmed but can constantly learn by themselves. They can change their behavior through the input of data from the outside world.
AI holds great promise. But when the adoption of this technology increases, their liabilities also emerge. If the algorithms fail to perform as expected, the result can be economic loss and business interruption, personal injury and property damage, professional liability, medical malpractice and cyber exposure.
The European Union is working on a comprehensive legal framework for AI and a harmonized liability regime specifically for AI systems. Meanwhile, general civil law concepts like the duty of care and product liability govern who will be liable if damage occurs when these systems fail.
For this particular podcast episode, we've invited once again Dominic “Doc” Ligot from Data Ethics Philippines and Cirrolytix as he walk us through the Algorithmic Liabilities and its significant relevance to our digital ecosystem.

Primary Derivatives

Primary Derivatives

There’s no getting away from the fact that treasury management is a critical part of any organization. No organization, regardless of their size and sector, can afford to lose sight of their financial risk, and their cash and liquidity positions – yet in an increasingly complex business landscape, this can be easier said than done. There are many changes in the financial landscape, and increasing volatility of the markets make the job of risk management even more difficult. Technology helps facilitate that analysis and adapt as needed. Today’s treasury management software should provide a holistic view of not just the financial risks, but also deliver tools and insights to provide controls on the risks, and allow an organization to evolve as the financial markets change.
In view of these, we've invited Mr. Joseph Wong, Chief Executive Officer of CCK Financial Solutions Ltd. from Perth, Australia as he share his valuable insights on the TMS (Treasury Management System) platform of today, its challenges and opportunities as well as its significant relevance to our digital economy.

The Digital Age of Workforce Management

The Digital Age of Workforce Management

A top strategic focus of HR (Human Resources) over the next few years, is primarily aligned on data. The shift to remote work caused by the pandemic, meant that corporate organizations had to increasingly rely on tools to gauge how engaged and productive employees were, and, by extension, turn to data insights for direction.
Clearly, “Data is the new currency when it comes to the workforce management”.
The move to digital will become even more marked as companies seek to transform in the face of new challenges, leveraging data to enhance practices, deliver value and create alignment.
In view of these, we've invited Mr. Rolf van der Pol, Director of Cadena HRMS for the Asia Pacific region based in Singapore as he shares with us his valuable insights on the Workforce Management platform of today and its significant relevance to our digital economy.
