🌐 From Pilot Projects to Portfolio Impact: Blockchain's Real-World Transformation in FX Markets Proud to highlight one of our strategic partners at MMBA, Baxter Hines CFA, whose latest article in CFA Institute's Enterprising Investor demonstrates why blockchain education isn't just theoretical—it's mission-critical for today's investment professionals.

They're already being piloted today." 🎧 Want to dive deeper?
