Law & FinTech Conference 2025
Description
The Law & FinTech Conference 2025 brings together legal scholars, practitioners, and regulators from Australia, the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom and Asia—including Singapore, China, Hong Kong, South Korea, and India—to examine the regulatory and doctrinal challenges posed by technological innovation in the financial sector. Over two days, the conference will explore recent developments in payment services, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), artificial intelligence in finance, decentralised finance (DeFi), cryptoasset regulation and insolvency, as well as fintech-driven transformations in banking. Through a series of thematically structured panels, participants will critically engage with emerging legal frameworks, enforcement issues, and conceptual questions at the intersection of financial law and digitalisation. The conference provides a focused forum for rigorous academic exchange on how legal systems across jurisdictions respond to—and help shape—the digital evolution of finance.
