Over three days in Zurich, Point Zero Forum 2025 brought together a curated community of 1,350 central bankers, policy-makers, regulators, technologists, investors, entrepreneurs and academics from over 66 countries. What emerged was a shared commitment to shape the future of finance with trust, transparency and responsibility.

This magazine, published by OMFIF and GFTN, explores the themes and conclusions made at the forum. It features thought leadership from Giesecke+Devrient Currency Technology, the Swiss Bankers Association and UNHCR on topics ranging from tokenisation to how technology can be used to deploy humanitarian aid more effectively.
