About this session

This roundtable brings together leaders from global stablecoin issuers, blockchain foundations, digital asset exchanges, institutional infrastructure providers, corporates, and venture investors to examine how stablecoins and tokenised assets are entering mainstream financial markets. The discussion will explore deployment across payments, treasury, trade, and capital markets, including how USD and JPY stablecoins, tokenised deposits, and other forms of digital money are being used for intraday liquidity, cross‑border settlement, and programmable trade and supply‑chain finance.
Speakers will share case studies from Japan and across Asia, highlighting how exchanges, issuers, corporates, and ecosystem builders are navigating regulation, compliance, and risk management while building new corridors and liquidity venues. By combining issuer, infrastructure, corporate, and investment perspectives, the session will illustrate how these instruments are reshaping market structure, what this means for financial institutions and corporates, and where the next phase of adoption is likely to emerge.

本ラウンドテーブルでは、世界的なステーブルコイン発行体、ブロックチェーン財団、デジタル資産取引所、機関向けインフラ提供事業者、事業法人、ベンチャー投資家などのリーダーが集まり、ステーブルコインおよびトークン化資産が主流の金融市場へどのように浸透しつつあるのかを議論します。
決済、トレジャリー、貿易、資本市場といった分野での活用事例を取り上げ、米ドル建ておよび円建てステーブルコイン、トークン化預金、そのほかのデジタル通貨が、日中流動性の確保、クロスボーダー決済、さらにはプログラム可能な貿易金融やサプライチェーン・ファイナンスにどのように活用されているかを掘り下げます。
日本およびアジア各地の事例を通じて、取引所、発行体、事業会社、エコシステム構築者が、規制、コンプライアンス、リスク管理に対応しながら、新たな資金の流れと取引の場を築いている実態を紹介します。発行体、インフラ提供者、事業会社、投資家それぞれの視点を交えながら、これらの仕組みが市場構造をどのように変えつつあるのか、金融機関や事業会社に何を意味するのか、そして次の成長局面がどこから現れるのかを明らかにします。
