This meeting brought together leading figures from many financial institutions, including the Monetary Authority of Singapore, the Reserve Bank of Australia, JPMorgan Chase, Citibank, etc., to conduct extensive exchanges on this topic of global concern.
At the beginning of the meeting, Dr. Zhang Xiao and other financial technology experts had an in-depth discussion on the current status of cross-border transaction compliance and the challenges it faces, with a special focus on the main difficulties encountered by financial institutions in cross-border compliance procedures, such as KYC data Privacy protection, illegal transaction tracking and filtering, etc., and a detailed introduction to the potential of blockchain technology in improving cross-border payments and financial compliance.

This view triggered enthusiastic responses from the participants. Everyone generally agreed that in the future, this type of innovative technology will become a key force in promoting the development of cross-border finance and payments.
At the end of the meeting, Dr. Zhang Xiao expressed his optimism about the future development of cross-border finance.
