Engineering the Capital Network with ADFW Editor in Chief

Abu Dhabi Finance WeekTue, Oct 21, 2025, 12:00 AM

Transcript

[Music] As we built Abu Dhabi Finance Week over the past 3 years, we've seen the world's great economists and the leaders of the world's most important financial institutions all agree on one thing. Capital does not move today in the same way that it did 100 years ago, 10 years ago, one year ago, or even yesterday. There are wildly different factors that are thrusting real change forward. And this change is exhilarating every day. From digital currencies to speed of settlement, artificial general intelligence to the rise of certain financial centers and the decline of others, new government policies and rapidly rising new players.

The capital network is a constantly evolving, changing and adaptive thing. And this change is really important. We at Abu Dhabi Finance Week are trying our best to track that change and to find the truth between the noise. Please join us this December as we engineer the capital network live and right in front of your eyes. [Music]
