How is Asia’s payments and treasury landscape evolving as real-time infrastructure, tokenised money and programmable payments gain traction?
In this episode of Treasury Transformer, our leader Kelvin Li, General Manager of Platform Tech and Senior Vice President of Ant International, sits down with Zilong Li, Head of Digital Currency Unit, Global Transaction Services at DBS
Together, we explore:
- How digital wallets and real-time payments are transforming ASEAN cross-border transactions
- How tokenised deposits and programmable payments can complement existing system in this evolving landscape?
- Why 24/7 treasury operations are no longer optional for regional businesses
- What should treasury and payment teams prepare for as the ecosystem becomes more real-time, digital and increasingly tokenised
As ASEAN’s payment systems become more connected and real-time, treasurers and payment teams are preparing for a future where traditional rails, real-time infrastructure, and blockchain rails coexist. The conversation explores how financial institutions and technology partners can meet customers’ expectations for speed, optionality and safety.
