Citi survey: By 2030, crypto assets are expected to handle one-tenth of global post-trade transactions

[Citi Survey: By 2030, Crypto Assets Expected to Handle One-Tenth of Global Post-Trade Market] According to Jinse Finance, a survey by Citi predicts that in less than five years, one-tenth of the global post-trade market volume will be processed through stablecoins and tokenized securities. The investment bank stated in its "Securities Services Evolution Report" released on Tuesday that bank-issued stablecoins are seen as a primary means to support collateral efficiency, asset tokenization, and private market securities. The report surveyed 537 custodians, banks, broker-dealers, asset management firms, and institutional investors from the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East between June and July. More than half of the respondents indicated that their companies are also piloting the application of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in post-trade processes. The post-trade market ensures that securities transactions are verified, executed, and ultimately settled. With the United States passing a stablecoin regulatory bill earlier this year, Wall Street's interest in stablecoins continues to rise.
