Umar Farooq is chief executive of Onyx by JPMorgan, a unit of the US house that leverages blockchain technologies for transformative purposes in banking.
Euromoney caught up with him in Singapore on the fringes of the country’s annual fintech festival, which took place in person for the first time since 2019. Our interview was prompted by JPMorgan’s role on a landmark decentralised finance (DeFi) deal stewarded by the Monetary Authority of Singapore.
But it also afforded the opportunity to hear Farooq’s thoughts on some of the big digital concerns of the day.
Thanks for your interest in Euromoney!
