Vayana

🆕 Vayana at CFO 100 by CFO Collective The event concluded with some very meaningful discussions with CFOs across industries. Here are the highlights and best practices shared by some of the brightest CFOs in our country on how they adapt, shape and grow businesses in the VUCA World. 1. Supply chain parameters are evolving and it's forcing CFOs to think and act differently. One of the examples cited in a panel revolved around how a large DTH player who imported 100% of set top boxes five years back with $400 exposure has now brought down its exposure to zero with make in India products. 2. ESG & Data Privacy are not just buzzwords but will soon become a way of life for every listed company in India by 2030, as envisioned by senior finance folks in the forum. 3. The CFO's role has moved from a mere 3Cs model of cost, control and compliance to a more strategic one; with that of automation, agility and aggression to expand the markets. As one panelist cited - transactions should be automated and information should be democratized. 4. CFOs are toying with the idea of PaaS and Aggregation Model to revive vintage businesses that don't yield results in medium and long term. This has in many ways helped open new markets with alternate revenue sources. 5. Lastly, more and more CFOs are interestingly taking the LOF - Leap of Faith approach into consideration alongside number-first ROI, because shifts in consumer preferences push them to look beyond numbers. Finance today is more a "general agent" vis-a-vis a "number management function".

  🔎 Views from the Panel Discussion on Scaling Tokenized Markets: Driving Market Acceptance and Building Liquidity at The GFTN Forum Japan Vayana is focused on ensuing affordable liquidity on trade credit for small businesses. For us, #Tokenisation is an efficient and cost effective way of providing liquidity as long as the laws and regulators support it. 📜 We have seen encouraging progress by many countries on #Tokenisation especially in Singapore, Hongkong, Switzerland and GCC. 📜We also are keenly following the various MLETR and DNI enabling regulations around the world and believe it to be an important catalyst for tokenising trade receivables. 📜Key to tokenisation will be resolving payment and settlement mechanisms and we would like to see default globally acceptable #PaymentRails whether that be #CBDC or #DepositTokens or #Stablecoins. 📜Adoption of #SharedLedgers by regulated institutions without the fragmentation, is important. 📜It is also important to understand that tokenisation will introduce 24/7 payment and #Settlement coordinated by #SmartContracts. 📜Regulators and law makers will need to quickly arrive at globally acceptable and verifiable standards to audit code and more importantly have contingencies to reverse or modify transactions done in error by those #Contracts.
