The financial system is at a tipping point. Public blockchains, regulated digital money, and tokenised assets are converging to redefine how value moves, settles, and is stored.
What began as a crypto-native experiment is now shaping institutional finance. It is enabling instant settlement, programmable capital markets, and new levels of efficiency across all financial value chains.
For banks, asset managers, and regulated infrastructure players, the question is no longer if but how to act.
We see blockchain adoption in financial services evolving in three distinct waves:
A new asset class emerged through retail-driven cryptocurrencies, ETFs, and decentralised finance.
On-chain money such as stablecoins, tokenised deposits, and CBDCs are making settlement faster, cheaper, and programmable.
The most transformative wave, where money and securities are operated on the same interoperable rails. This enables atomic delivery-versus-payment (DvP) and real-time, global settlement.
Zühlke supports and guides clients strategically across all three waves. Today, we’re driving stablecoin-based flows while preparing institutions for the tokenised capital markets of tomorrow.
