Digital Marketplace Financing
Equity Crowdfunding, Peer to Peer Lending and Digital Wealth Management
A Two-Part, Online Course

Date:  24th & 25th August 2022

WHY THIS COURSE?

The next generation of financial innovations are already being effectively deployed by the global capital markets and investment management sectors, and initiatives such as digital investment management (DIM), initial exchange offerings (IEO), equity crowdfunding (ECF), peer-to-peer financing (P2P), digital asset exchanges (DAX), and digital asset custody (DAC) are embedded in today’s financial landscape. Some of these ideas are not new – forms of crowdfunding, for example, have been around for centuries. However, how these ideas are applied to contemporary financing and capital-raising, and the technology being deployed is very much cutting-edge. With companies of all sizes looking to access marketplace financing, and with digital assets becoming evermore mainstream, gaining a thorough understanding of what these products are, how they are applied and how they will evolve is crucial. This is true for all market participants: advisors and intermediaries, investors, entrepreneurs and companies seeking finance, and regulators and market supervisors.

This 6-hour online course introduces key concepts and mechanics of marketplace financing and key parties in the process. The program dissects current, significant digital initiatives, such as robo-advisory, equity crowdfunding, peer-to-peer financing, and examines market characteristics, features, opportunities, and challenges. We then take time to assess important considerations such as risk, regulation, and future innovation, assessing the potential for market growth and further product development.

  • Key Learning Takeaways
    • Understand how technology is being applied to global markets, and the main mechanisms and platforms being used to do this.
    • Identify main players and activities, and how this is changing global markets.
    • Examine in detail the workings and objectives of crowdfunding, crowd investing, robo-advisory and digital investment management platforms.
    • Understand the global environment for the evolution and application of these initiatives.
    • Understand how regulators have responded to digital initiatives and assessing how financial institutions should position themselves.

EXPERT COURSE DIRECTOR


Matthew Martin 
Founder & CEO, Blossom Finance

Matthew is Founder and CEO of Blossom Finance—a blockchain-based Sukuk platform for social impact investing. Matthew has been an early pioneer in the application of FinTech for Islamic finance with a background including both engineering and product management experience in the digital wallet, payment card, money remittance, mobile payments, and mobile banking sectors at venture capital funded tech startups Xoom, Boku, and Monitise.

Matthew has advised policy makers at central banks and financial services regulators on blockchain technology and has spoken as an educator to international audiences in Bahrain, Indonesia, Malaysia, Qatar, Russia, Singapore, UAE, and the USA. Prior to Blossom, Matthew started his first blockchain related venture in 2013 - back when Bitcoin was less than $100 USD - which allowed instant purchase of Bitcoin in 27 countries using just a mobile phone. At Monitise, Matthew led the team that pioneered one of the world’s first in-mobile NFC payment product for banks, and fully owned the entire delivery of that solution from technology through to commercial agreements. Prior to that, Matthew was the product architect and team lead for Monitise’s flagship iOS and Android white-label mobile banking platform, which grew to the market leading solution for the US consumer banking market. Under Matthew’s leadership, the team delivered a new platform and architecture that dramatically reduced the overall delivery time of client solutions and reduced ongoing cost of ownership while maintaining a broad range of features and customization capabilities. At Boku, Matthew was product owner of Boku Accounts: in-person payments using the world’s first Visa PayWave™ NFC sticker. Previously, as Engineering Manager of the Accounts team, Matthew led a team of 10 engineers to build a white-label payments and merchant loyalty product that resulted in a strategic investment by Visa. Before leading the Accounts team, Matthew delivered various proof-of-concepts instrumental in landing key clients such as Disney and Facebook. At Xoom, Matthew evangelized User Experience and User-Centered Design, and championed the first push into mobile; he helped design and run Xoom’s first ever user study. Prior to financial tech, Matthew worked in consumer electronics as a Software Engineer at Logitech as part of their Streaming Media Business Unit and at Benchmark Media Systems as a Software Engineer. Matthew has studied 8 languages and speaks Indonesian, Farsi, and French at an intermediate level in addition to his native English. Matthew embraced Islam in 2010 and currently lives in Jakarta, Indonesia.
