    Stablecoins, Tokenization and the Future of Finance

    Asset tokenization and digital money, including stablecoins, are moving from the margins of finance toward the core of market infrastructure, spurring banks and other market participants to adapt their approach to blockchain technology.   In this episode of Credit Currents, we explore why trust and regulation are central to  adoption of tokenized assets, and how a gradual move in this direction could reshape payments, settlement and credit markets.   The conversation explores both the promise of faster, always‑on transactions and the practical challenges that will shape how quickly digital finance takes hold.   Host: Greg Sobel, Vice President, Senior Credit Officer, Moody’s Ratings Guest: Donald Robertson, Managing Director, Financial Institutions, Moody’s Ratings   Related Research:  Financial Institutions – US: Tokenization will change US transaction flows; less likely to remove intermediaries,11 May 2026 Financial Institutions – US: US financial markets envision an inevitable shift to tokenized assets and digital money,12 May 2026 Digital Economy – Global: Growing stablecoin use highlights policy, liquidity and price vulnerabilities,13 May 2026     © 2026 Moody’s Corporation and/or its licensors and affiliates.
