Saqib Nazir examines how rapid advances in AI, tokenisation, and quantum computing are creating a new wave of disruption across the financial industry. He explains how these technologies are changing the nature of money, reshaping payment systems, accelerating competition, and challenging long-standing assumptions around market stability, trust, and financial infrastructure.
The discussion also explores how treasury and risk functions must evolve to operate in a more dynamic environment. Nazir highlights the need for enterprise-wide risk visibility, faster data and analytics capabilities, and real-time measurement frameworks as organisations adapt to increasing market volatility and technological transformation.
Saqib Nazir has over 25 years of experience in the financial industry, specializing in various aspects of treasury and balance sheet management. Before joining TD he held roles at Citibank, QRM, and Royal Bank of Canada. A metallurgical engineer by training, he also holds an MBA and a Master’s in Management of Artificial Intelligence. Saqib is a published author currently working on a novel, and lives in Markham with his wife, two daughters, and their puppy.
