USA to Abu Dhabi: Empowering Women Globally

TheIMPACT focuses on ESG, Impact Investing, and advancing the 17 United Nations-supported Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The show profiles people and companies committed to changing lives and creating a sustainable world.Read Time: 59 secondsOn FINTECH.TV’s TheIMPACT, our host from Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates, Rachel Pether, is joined by the worldly stateswoman, Lauren Willy, representing the United States of America’s interests in various affairs, most importantly – women’s rights in this interview.

Rachel and Lauren discuss her background beginning with her father, jolting her onto the world stage early, Brazil, and what she is currently doing on various initiatives to improve women’s rights exponentially. Lauren and her team are making big moves from employment to increasing access to credit to growing women’s access to land-ownership through education.The most crucial element – at least a significant pillar – is access to credit, treasury management, and building credit overtime for any entrepreneur. Especially true for women in emerging and developing markets globally that must align their business with the capital markets. Lauren recognized this in Abu Dhabi and is helping through her programs. The essential part of any entrepreneur’s journey is who is there to help them when things get dark, obstacles occur, and how to overcome to become a better entrepreneur as studies from Harvard, BCG, and others have shown that women excel. As discussed with Rachel, she helps women understand how to build, grow, and develop networks.

Leaders of the Digital Securities Revolution

One of the most-watched programs in the Blockchain sector and has been seen by over 4-million viewers worldwide. Read Time: 1 minute and 58 secondsOn this segment of FINTECH.TV’s Digital Asset Report (DAR), our host from New York City, Vince Molinari, is joined by the digital asset pioneer, Founder of Elevated Returns, Stephane De Baets to discuss the bleeding edge vs the leaning edge covering their experience together from Aspen Coin digital securities issuance to what is coming next.
Trading minority securities positions in real estate is a tricky proposition when looking at public markets. Understanding this dilemma is where Stephane, Vince, and the team could architect a solution that integrated the paradigm, capabilities, and frictionless capabilities of blockchain technologies. The challenges present with issuing a New World security in a digital format, making the digital security then seamlessly tradable, with clearing, settlement, transfer agent, custodian, and similar components integrated for pioneering a frictionless future. Even still, in the Old World, it is very cumbersome to trade private securities issued under the 1933 Securities Act under Regulation D and tradable under the 1934 Securities Exchange Act rules and regulations for exempt sureties.

Stephane, Elevated Returns, and his partners issued the digital security for a portion of the capital stack with a trophy asset in a wealthy MSA. Aspen, Colorado is home to many billionaires, innovators, and entrepreneurs that call the St. Regis home from time to time as extended vacations turn into a work adventure.

The successful issuance of this prized asset in Aspen, Co. proved the concept of trading assets 1:1 without having to liquidate the entire property, investment, or formerly illiquid asset class. Previously, these assets generally qualified for “hard money,” bank funds, or institutional capital that tapped into REITs, “big boy” funds, and similar facilities only available to a limited few.Digital securities offer new ways for investors to gain exposure to secure asset classes through innovation using blockchain technology mapped with securities laws, regulation, and compliance requirements. Only if a small bit of the entire value is securitized, tokenized, and similar partial gains, we have gained a milestone event that will eventually prove network theory via Metcalfe and Reed’s Laws.

Exchange and regulatory compliance with the right partners that understand how to address – tZero is the leader in this space, says Stephane. Vince adds both Computershare into the mix that worked very closely with FINTECH.TV’s Executive Director in NYC to architect their blockchain settlement solution from day one. Always a small world.

We hope you enjoy this informative segment on digital securities, assets being traded on trusted trustless systems using fully compliant technology systems, and how the ecosystem is going from alpha/beta into a commercialized network of buying, selling, issuing, and pricing digital securities unlike ever before.

One of the most-watched programs in the Blockchain sector and has been seen by over 4-million viewers worldwide. On this segment of FINTECH.TV’s Digital Asset Report our host from Tel Aviv, Ziv Keinan, is joined by the cyber security expert, CEO of Konfidas, Ram Levi discusses how to be prepared during the increased risk with everyone working from home during Covid-19 for cyber attacks.Ram explains how Konfidas approaches cybersecurity for their clients around the world.

Managed services for small businesses for a cost-benefit solution to secure the enterprise without the prohibitive costs associated with Old World roadblocks. The attacks surfaces have been increased during this work-from-home phenomena as represented by a 60% increase reported to the Federal Bureau of Investigations in the United States of America on cyber attacks.

From remote desktops, to vulnerable networks, to social hacking, June 2020 had more attacks reported than the entire year of 2019. Yes, ransomware attacks have grown to a point of major concern as the majority of companies are no where close to prepared.Similar to Russia attacking Ukraine for political instability, it is not always about money as many times the state actors are disrupting the system and bringing these companies and people to their knees. Small companies are not always reporting these breaches – and overall cybersecurity attacks – unless they are forced to to claim insurance or gdpr protocol or similar forces that bring these issues to light.The nature of DLT as utilized by blockchain architecture is extremely secure. The computers, equipment, and systems that access these distributed ledger technology blockchain systems are absolutely not secure. This is a hacker’s dream providing a point of access by leveraging the weakest node in the network of accessing secure data.

Ram Levi and Ziv Kenan had a great time on this exclusive interview on FINTECH.TV and we hope you will enjoy it just as much staying up-to-date on the pulse of security in the digital New World.
