Jon Cunliffe, Jochen Metzger and Ron Berndsen join Fnality Europe’s supervisory board as the company works to expand beyond its sterling payment system.
Fnality has named former Bank of England deputy governor Jon Cunliffe to chair its UK board as the blockchain settlement company develops euro and US dollar payment systems.
The company said Thursday that Jochen Metzger, a former Deutsche Bundesbank director general for payments and settlement systems, had joined its European subsidiary’s supervisory board and was expected to chair it. Ron Berndsen, a former senior official at the Dutch central bank, also joined the board.
The company said its blockchain settlement infrastructure is designed to support tokenized asset markets and banks’ activity in stablecoins and tokenized deposits.
