Geopolitical Triggers, the Carry Trade Unwind, and the Survival Pivot

This episode will center on:

• The Macro Trigger: How geopolitical conflict in the Strait of Hormuz impacts the "Oil-in-Yen" shock in Japan.
• The Carry Trade Unwind: Explaining the mechanics of the $3 trillion Yen Carry Trade and why its collapse creates a global liquidity squeeze.
• Transitional Permission: How these moments of crisis create the "permission" for banks to abandon slow, legacy messaging and adopt real-time settlement rails for survival.
• Timeline Compression: Why a transition that normally takes a decade can be forced through in just a few years when the legacy plumbing can no longer hold the weight of the system.
