The membership will provide the Company with resources such as sector specific working-groups and a global network of peers, thought-leaders, regulators, government officials and innovators.

The GBBC engages regulators, business leaders and global change makers to further global adoption of blockchain technology to create equitable, secure, and functional societies.

"Our membership in GBBC helps ensure our participation in key industry working groups and events, as well as showcase our own innovative work," states Michael Coletta, Chief Strategy Officer of Fineqia. "We look forward to engagement with regulators, innovators, and companies that GBBC's wide reach brings."

The contributions and engagements provide the Company with participation and exposure to GBBC's numerous initiatives and events such as Blockchain Central Davos 2022, where the Company's CSO Michael Coletta participated in a panel discussion regarding the future of the capital markets. The Company also stands to gain visibility and credibility by co-authoring GBBC research and reports.

The GBBC leads numerous initiatives such as the Open Learning Forum which promotes the understanding of blockchain technology and use-cases while the Post Trade Distributed Ledger Group narrows in on distributed ledger technology application and regulatory developments within financial services. The Global Standards Mapping Initiative (GSMI) is a comprehensive report outlining blockchain and digital asset standards across 185 jurisdictions and 379 industry groups.
