Cựu Phó Thống đốc BoE Jon Cunliffe gia nhập Fnality với vai trò Chủ tịch thực thể tại Anh

The Huoxing Finance report, citing Bloomberg, states that Jon Cunliffe, former Deputy Governor for Financial Stability at the Bank of England, has joined blockchain payment company Fnality and will serve as Chairman of its UK entity. Jochen Metzger, former Director General of Payment and Settlement Systems at the Deutsche Bundesbank, has been appointed to the Supervisory Board of Fnality Europe and is expected to serve as its Chair; Ron Berndsen, former Head of Supervision and Head of Market Infrastructure Policy at De Nederlandsche Bank, will also join the Supervisory Board. Fnality operates a wholesale payment system that enables banks to settle debts using central bank money balances. Its pound sterling system, regulated by the Bank of England, went live in 2023 and is currently seeking regulatory approvals to launch versions for the US dollar and euro. Fnality states that the system is designed to support tokenized trading of traditional assets such as stocks and bonds, enabling securities and payment funds to move synchronously across interconnected digital networks, thereby shortening settlement times and enabling 24/7 trading. Fnality was founded in 2019 and is backed by major financial institutions including Goldman Sachs, UBS, Santander Bank, Bank of America, and Citigroup.
