Cryptocurrencies have undergone a volatile period recently but little has changed the view that we are witnessing the birth of a new asset class. Correspondingly in recent months there have been growing interest from our clients with respect to digital assets.

This webinar is designed to help provide clients with a basic understanding of what this asset class is all about. We will look into what is blockchain and why blockchain is the linch pin that has allowed this asset class to emerge. We will also look at the use case of various cryptos and why it’s a misconception to look at them as currencies but instead, they maybe more akin to small cap tech stocks.

We will also look into what are the available instruments investors can use to gain an exposure into this fast growing asset class and the risks that comes along with it.
