RULEMATCH Spot On - Delivering on Digital (Part 1)
Digital capital market infrastructure lays a foundation for a new evolution in finance - one that combines proven parts of traditional structures and the potential of new technology like blockchain and DLT. This transition has has many layers - as well as challenges and opportunities.
But what efficiencies does digital capital market infrastructure actually bring?

And how do changing regulations and technological innovations promise to alter the landscape overtime?
