Fnality International Ltd., a London-based blockchain company backed by top financial giants like Goldman Sachs and UBS, is on the hunt for a new CEO.&nbsp;
Rhomaios Ram, who’s been leading the company since its early days, has announced his plans to retire. However, he will remain in charge until a successor is found, according to <a href="https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/international/2024/11/20/goldman-backed-blockchain-company-fnality-hunts-for-new-ceo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bloomberg</a>.
Fnality has carved out a unique niche by facilitating the ability of banks to make transactions using a digital cash asset that’s 1-to-1 backed by funds at the Bank of England.
The company launched its Sterling payments system last year, which allows banks to process transactions in British pounds.
Now, it is looking to expand by getting approval to launch digital versions of other major currencies, like the US dollar and the euro. If all goes according to plan, Fnality could potentially change how banks settle deals in tokenized versions of traditional assets.
Earlier this year, the company raised <a href="https://www.cryptotimes.io/2023/11/14/fnality-raises-95-million-to-launch-blockchain-payments-network/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$95 million in its second funding round</a> with institution institutions such as Euroclear and the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation This capital helped Fnality expand its global liquidity management network and further develop digital payment models in wholesale markets.
Meanwhile, Mainstream finance has adopted blockchain more slowly than expected, but major players like Goldman Sachs are still pursuing tokenization projects. The company is moving to incorporate a new firm that would help large financial entities trade and settle financial instruments in blockchain, from its digital-assets platform.
According to previous reports, Goldman Sachs will <a href="https://www.cryptotimes.io/2024/11/18/goldman-sachs-to-launch-blockchain-trading-platform/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">collaborate with partners like Tradeweb Markets</a> to launch several tokenization projects in the US and European markets. The spinout is expected to be completed within the next 12 to 18 months as it awaits regulatory approval.
