This is Clearing Spotlight — Where markets meet clarity, and institutions navigate liquidity, risk, and infrastructure.
In this episode, we sit down with Amy Zhang, Head of APAC at Fireblocks, to talk about one of the most significant financial shifts happening today — and why Asia is leading it.
Amy breaks down why Asia is now the world’s fastest-growing stablecoin market—and how institutions use stablecoins for real-time payments, liquidity, and faster settlement. The discussion explains the rapid rise of stablecoin adoption across Asia, how regulations in different countries are accelerating institutional use, and why corporates are shifting treasury operations onto blockchain rails. We also dive into how digital treasury management is becoming more dynamic, efficient, and global, driven by the possibilities unlocked through blockchain-based financial tools.
The conversation delves into:
Stablecoins as Financial Infrastructure
Regulatory Clarity Drives Adoption
Core Institutional Use Cases
Evolution of Digital Treasury
APAC's Diverse and Leading Role
🗣️ “ There's a saving time which then translate to cost and also revenue opportunities if you have stable coins, and I can send money on demand because it's instantaneous.”
