Episode details
In this episode of Converge, we’re joined by Nkiru Uwaje, COO and Co-Founder of MANSA, to talk about the big shifts happening in cross-border payments. She breaks down how decentralized finance (DeFi) and stablecoins are making transactions faster, cheaper, and more accessible – especially in emerging markets where getting US dollar liquidity isn’t always easy.
We get into why liquidity is such a big deal, how stablecoins cut out the middleman, and what businesses need to know about regulation. Nkiru also shares her thoughts on tokenization and how it could open up new ways to invest and move money. If you’re curious about how all this impacts the future of finance, you won’t want to miss this one!
