About this episode

The episode discusses the future of tokenisation in financial markets, focusing on regulation, adoption, and strategic choices for firms.

In this episode, host Tessa Norman is joined by Laura Talvitie, PwC Digital Assets Regulatory Lead, and James Moseley, PwC Banking Partner and Digital Assets UK Lead, to explore the next phase of tokenisation across financial services. Our guests unpack the UK’s evolving regulatory landscape, growing market momentum, and the shift from experimentation to live use cases. The discussion explores how tokenisation is developing across banking, asset and wealth management, insurance and crypto-native firms, and what this could mean for market infrastructure, competition and consumer outcomes. We also consider the strategic choices facing firms, the risks and barriers to adoption, and the steps firms should be taking now to identify and prioritise viable use cases and build operating model readiness. Finally, we explore how firms can position themselves for a more tokenised future financial ecosystem.
