UBS CEO Sergio Ermotti has declared that the integration of blockchain technology with traditional banking is inevitable. Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Ermotti emphasized that blockchain represents the future for the banking sector, predicting a convergence between the two. This marks a shift from his 2018 stance, where he described blockchain as essential for business competitiveness. UBS, managing over $5 trillion in assets, aligns with other major financial institutions in recognizing blockchain's potential to overhaul traditional finance infrastructure. Fidelity CEO Abigail Johnson has similarly highlighted the outdated nature of current financial systems, suggesting blockchain as a transformative solution. The push towards blockchain adoption is further driven by competitive pressures and regulatory developments, such as the Clarity Act in the US, which are fostering a fusion between blockchain and traditional finance.
