Charting Project Agorá, Pontes and the future of financial market infrastructure

Tokenisation is moving beyond experimentation towards implementation, with central banks and market participants increasingly focused on how new forms of financial market infrastructure can support more efficient, interoperable and cross-border wholesale markets. As initiatives such as Project Agorá and Pontes evolve, attention is turning from technological feasibility to questions of governance, scalability and adoption.

Timothée Fluteau, deputy head of wholesale digital currency and innovation at Banque de France, joins OMFIF to discuss the next phase of wholesale tokenisation, examine the role of central bank money and explore the opportunities and challenges in shaping the future of wholesale financial market infrastructure.
