Cultivating Confidence: The Role Of Custody In Institutional Confidence – Public Trust And Oversight, SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce, Digital Assets Summit, Singapore, Sept. 30, 2025
Date 30/09/2025
Thank you to the Digital Assets Association for organizing this event and inviting me to participate. My views are my own as a Commissioner and not necessarily those of the SEC or my fellow Commissioners. I am appearing in digital form, which might be appropriate in light of today’s discussions on the tokenization of real-world assets. Had I been with you in person in Singapore, I would have urged you to join me in visiting the famous National Orchid Garden. I have an affinity for orchids because I managed to keep one alive for nearly fifteen years—an amazing feat given my complete lack of gardening skills. Plants that friends have entrusted to my care have not enjoyed similar good health. I have plucked good garden plants thinking they were weeds, inadequately shielded a prized pepper plant from the scorching sun, and under- or overwatered formerly flourishing trees. I am not a good custodian of plants, which brings me to today’s topic—crypto custody.

ISDA derivatiViews: Working Towards Tokenized Collateral
Date 30/09/2025
One of the lessons learned from recent market shocks – including the 2020 dash for cash and the UK gilt market crisis in 2022 – is that when volatility strikes and market participants must suddenly generate large amounts of cash to meet a spike in variation margin (VM) calls, liquidity can quickly drain away and destabilize the market. In response, a growing number of market participants are looking at alternatives to cash and government securities to meet their VM requirements, prompting ISDA to explore how tokenization could be used to unlock a broader array of assets to post as collateral.
