From Vegas to Riyadh: How Money20/20 Became Fintech’s Global Meeting Place

Tracey Davies, President of Money20/20, explains how the show has evolved since it was founded in 2012. The focus of Money20/20 has from the beginning been about staying close to customers and listening to what the industry needs and is built from ex-bankers, ex-VCs, ex-fintech operators and ex-fintech journalists, so content is grounded in experience meaning that the aim is to stay “by the industry, for the industry” while remaining aligned to customer needs.

At this year’s Money20/20 USA in Las Vegas, there’s a buzzword bingo battle between two topics: stablecoins and agentic AI. Last year, generative AI dominated and stablecoins were more in the background; now they’re competing for top billing. Around them, the programme spans the money tech stack, open banking, real-time and cross-border payments, fraud, identity and more which was delivered by a record 600 speakers.

Davies also underlines Money20/20’s focus on inclusion. She has been President since 2017 and says diversity has been a commitment from day one with the this year’s Money20/20 featuring 49% of speakers are women, a record. Programmes like Rise Up (which was launched in 2018 for women) and Amplify (launched in 2021 for people of colour and underrepresented groups) support this, alongside accessibility initiatives while the inaugural Money Awards which recognised Project Nemo with the Diamond Grand Prix for its work on inclusion in fintech.

Asked what defines Money20/20, Davies points to creativity, community and commercial success is that Money20/20 constantly reinvents itself; aiming to “do it the Money way” and surprise attendees at every event. Others may copy what’s been done, but they can’t copy what’s coming next. Finally, Davies highlights the global footprint: events in Asia, Europe, the Middle East (in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia) and its “spiritual home” in Las Vegas. Across all four shows, the goal stays the same: to be the place where money does business and the place that the future of money is built.

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

The post BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BlackRock is steering $185 billion worth of model portfolios deeper into US stocks and artificial intelligence. The decision came this week as the asset manager adjusted its entire model suite, increasing its equity allocation and dumping exposure to international developed markets. The firm now sits 2% overweight on stocks, after money moved between several of its biggest exchange-traded funds. This wasn’t a slow shuffle. Billions flowed across multiple ETFs on Tuesday as BlackRock executed the realignment. The iShares S&P 100 ETF (OEF) alone brought in $3.4 billion, the largest single-day haul in its history. The iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) collected $2.3 billion, while the iShares US Equity Factor Rotation Active ETF (DYNF) added nearly $2 billion. The rebalancing triggered swift inflows and outflows that realigned investor exposure on the back of performance data and macroeconomic outlooks. BlackRock raises equities on strong US earnings The model updates come as BlackRock backs the rally in American stocks, fueled by strong earnings and optimism around rate cuts. In an investment letter obtained by Bloomberg, the firm said US companies have delivered 11% earnings growth since the third quarter of 2024. Meanwhile, earnings across other developed markets barely touched 2%. That gap helped push the decision to drop international holdings in favor of American ones. Michael Gates, lead portfolio manager for BlackRock’s Target Allocation ETF model portfolio suite, said the US market is the only one showing consistency in sales growth, profit delivery, and revisions in analyst forecasts. “The US equity market continues to stand alone in terms of earnings delivery, sales growth and sustainable trends in analyst estimates and revisions,” Michael wrote. He added that non-US developed markets lagged far behind, especially when it came to sales. This week’s changes reflect that position. The move was made ahead of the Federal…
