The Institutional Landscape with Peter Stern

Recorded 1 June 2023. We're stoked to have Peter Stern, our Director of Sales & Business Development, as the latest guest on CFB Talks Digital Assets.In many ways, Peter has one of the most difficult jobs in digital assets: selling crypto indices to regulated, notoriously conservative institutions in the Americas! But it’s a job he’s evidently excelled at.As we’ve seen, forward-thinking institutions are beginning to make big strides into adoption.But it takes individuals with considerable skill, knowledge of blockchain economics and traditional finance + patience, to encourage institutions to take that first step.Listen to our stimulating conversation to hear how Peter spearheads CFB’s relationships with some of the most preeminent financial institutions, including BlackRock, which launched the BlackRock Bitcoin Private Trust last year;Why the institutional focus is likely to remain on Bitcoin and Ether for now;How, backed with safeguards built into our regulated indices, Peter plays a major part in driving home the importance of information sharing for listed crypto funds.
