Aave Labs has appointed Linda Jeng as its new Chief Legal and Policy Officer, as announced by Aave founder Stani Kulechov. Jeng, a former U.S. government official, brings extensive policy experience from her roles at the Federal Reserve Board, the Financial Stability Board, the U.S. Treasury Department, and the SEC. Her appointment is seen as a strategic move to advance Aave's efforts in integrating decentralized finance (DeFi) with institutional and mainstream markets.
