The current economic growth promises greater global competitiveness and an improvement in the quality of life of citizens. In this regard, the National Technical Committee on Transformation and Digital Economy of IMEF highlights the importance of digital transformation and the regulation of digital assets to promote sustainable economic development. These initiatives aim to strengthen a more inclusive and resilient financial ecosystem, focusing on the convergence of artificial intelligence and digital assets as drivers of the economy.
According to a study by Mordor Intelligence, the management of digital assets is estimated to reach a value of 5.27 billion dollars by 2024, with a projected annual growth of 15 percent. José Antonio Quesada Palacios, director of the Alliance for Financial Inclusion, emphasizes in his upcoming book the importance of cryptocurrency regulation to promote innovation in the stock market sector.
Tokenization, mentioned by RodrÃguez from FlatStone, emerges as a tool that reduces costs and time while democratizing access to capital for companies and startups. The relevance of these initiatives at the macroeconomic level is undeniable, and there is growing interest from international actors such as the Digital Assets Market Working Group in the United States, led by David Sacks, in integrating emerging technologies to boost the economy.
In Mexico, there is discussion about the need to align the regulatory framework with international standards to foster the adoption of financial innovations. Additionally, the possibility of developing a Digital Playbook in collaboration between AFI and FlatStone is considered to facilitate the integration of artificial intelligence and digital assets in the national financial sector, in line with global trends towards a more digitalized economy.
Digitalization and the adoption of technologies such as artificial intelligence present significant opportunities for economic growth and the reactivation of key sectors in various economies globally. In this context, Mexico aims to position its leadership in the digital economy by reviewing its regulatory framework and implementing new initiatives to improve financing for small and medium-sized enterprises in a simplified and more accessible environment.
