Blockchain for Wealth and Risk Management

21 September, 2020 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Blockchain for Wealth and Risk Management

2 x 1/2 day, non-technical course for financial professionals about the basics of Blockchain for Wealth and Risk Management.

The women from Where To Shop With Crypto, collaborating with TecStack.io would like to invite you to an innovative 2 x half-day workshop for finance and business professionals in wealth management.

The first workshop of its kind in Perth!

The world of finance is rapidly changing.

No longer in the realms of scams and money laundering, crypto digital assets like Bitcoin, security tokens, blockchain-enabled payments and decentralised finance are here to stay.

Major banks across the world and here in Australia have already adopted blockchain technology for payment transfer, increased security and instant money transfers: the next generation of the internet is emerging.

Wealth and risk management has broadened over these past years as new financial instruments have emerged.

The emergence of blockchain wealth management creates a whole world of fresh opportunities (and challenges) to the finance sector.

The wealth management industry needs to ensure it’s working ahead of the changes, not only to remain competitive, but up-to-date and relevant. Clients are already looking to their wealth advisors to help navigate these new and intriguing digital financial instruments, and understand the implications for their investments.

Wealth managers, financial advisors, banking industry professionals, corporate/ business professionals, and property finance specialists wanting to stay current and relevant in their roles will greatly benefit from having a basic understanding of blockchain technology, crypto digital assets, DeFi and asset tokenisation (real estate included).
