📍The Rise of Agentic Payments and Stablecoins at
We were grateful to be invited by Utila and Danish Choo to co-host the Agentic Payments and Stablecoins Roundtable in Singapore, bringing together leaders from across the digital assets and payments ecosystem for a candid conversation on where this space is headed.
🎤 The panel discussion featured:
- Kuberan Marimuthu, VP of Digital Assets, Nium
- Kailash Madan, Chief Commercial Officer, Triple-A
and our very own Ana Lei, Senior Fintech Advisor, Netron Information Technology
- Moderated by Stacey-Ann Pearson, APAC Managing Director, Utila
💬 The conversation ranged from the technical, like what actually separates a wallet built for humans from one built for autonomous agents, to the strategic, like whether executives should build, partner, or wait. One line from Ana stuck with the room: "Prompt guardrails are probabilistic, but institutional financial governance must be deterministic." Her advice for leaders: compose rather than build in isolation, and remember that when something goes wrong, you'll be judged not on the machine's mistake, but on whether you built the guardrails beforehand.
🚀 Alex Kuo, Vice President, ASEAN at Netron Information Technology, also took the stage for a 5-minute spotlight on how we help financial institutions move Agentic Payments from pilot to production, drawing on our track record serving 2,000+ clients worldwide with 24/7 technical support. He also spoke on Safeguards for Agentic Finance at Runtime (SAFR), the runtime governance framework launched by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, and why it's a useful guideline for institutions navigating this shift.
🙏 Thank you to Utila, Danish, our panellists, and everyone who joined us for such a thoughtful discussion. As more institutions move from pilots to production, we're glad to be part of the conversations shaping how agentic payments get built responsibly in this region.
