Switzerland – 22 September 2025

Ahead of its inaugural Apex Invest Digital event on September 22, 2025, at the Lausanne Palace, Apex Invest has unveiled a comprehensive new ebook designed to guide institutional investors through the rapidly evolving digital asset landscape.

The ebook Global Payments Reimagined: An Introduction to stablecoins, tokenised deposits and CBDCs (https://www.apexgroup.com/media/fsmddnh0/globalpaymentsreimagined.pdf) highlights the future of finance will be multi-rail, with stablecoins, tokenised deposits, and CBDCs coexisting. A digital wallet may one day hold all three, seamlessly selecting the most efficient payment method in the background without users needing to think about which form of money to use.

Daniel Coheur, Global Head of Digital Assets at Apex Group, said: "Digital money is reshaping finance in real time. Our ebook equips institutions with the knowledge to navigate multiple digital money rails, understand regulatory developments, and seize opportunities for innovation."

The eBook also addresses the challenges ahead. CBDCs could make domestic and cross-border payments more efficient but raise questions about privacy, bank stability, and implementation. Stablecoins require trust through transparency and full reserves, while tokenised deposits balance innovation with regulatory oversight.

Jasmine Burgess, CEO/CIO of Isogonal Ltd, who contributed to the ebook alongside Angie Walker and Daniel Coeur, Global Head of Digital Assets, Apex Group, said:

"Institutions that engage strategically now and accommodate robust, run-resilient architectures will be best positioned as regulation crystallises and digital assets mature.”

Apex Invest Digital takes place in partnership with Penrose Partners and headline sponsor Coinbase Asset Management. The program aims to equip institutional investors with the knowledge, tools, and trusted relationships needed to navigate the evolving digital asset landscape. It brings together LPs and GPs globally for two days of exclusive content, networking, and one-on-one meetings. Together, the events create a comprehensive three-day conference for institutional investors to explore both digital and traditional asset opportunities.
