Scott Mullins reposted thisThe conversation around AI in financial services has moved from "what's possible" to "how do we operationalize this safely at scale." Johnna Powell shared how DTCC is putting that into practice at the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Financial Services Symposium, from governance and infrastructure for responsible enterprise adoption to embedding AI across the SDLC.Scott Mullins reposted thisI really enjoyed speaking at the AWS Financial Services Symposium this week alongside leaders across the industry exploring how AI is reshaping financial infrastructure. I shared some of the work we’ve been driving at DTCC to move AI from experimentation into real operational impact, including building the governance and infrastructure needed to support enterprise-wide adoption responsibly, and also embedding AI into the SDLC, scaling developer enablement. A few themes that stood out throughout the symposium: * AI adoption is accelerating rapidly across financial services * The conversation has shifted from “What is possible?” to “How do we operationalize this safely at scale?” * Success increasingly depends on combining technology, governance, culture, and measurable business outcomes * The future is migrating from simple copilots to intelligent systems, workflows, and infrastructure embedded deeply into processes. It is no longer about waving the “AI magic wand” to create quick fixes. Really appreciated the thoughtful discussions with peers across the ecosystem and the opportunity to exchange ideas on where the industry is headed next. Thank you to the Amazon Web Services (AWS) team, including Scott Mullins and Ken Barnes for hosting an outstanding event. #AI #GenerativeAI #FinancialServices #AWS #Innovation #Technology #CapitalMarkets #Leadership #DigitalTransformation

Scott Mullins reposted thisScott Mullins reposted thisJust a year ago we launched AWS Transform, the first agentic AI service purpose-built for enterprise transformation. Built on AWS’s two decades of migration expertise, it’s fundamentally changing how businesses modernize IT and migrate legacy systems with speed at scale. Across thousands of customers, we've already saved 810 developer years of effort and helped customers process 4.5+ billion lines of code. Proud of what Asa Kalavade and team have shipped. Here’s a closer look at what we’ve seen in the field 12 months in: 🟠 ADP modernized a complex mainframe using Transform’s mainframe and custom capabilities, along with Kiro to complete the new code. They're now scaling for 1.1 million clients with results in weeks, not years. 🟠 Signaturit Group a Namirial Company cut its Windows .NET to Linux migration from six to eight months down to a few days. 🟠 Air Canada upgraded Node.js runtimes in days at a 90% efficacy rate and 80% cost reduction, then made Transform their internal standard. Customers are getting remarkable results with Transform, and 4 out of 5 organizations come back and initiate more projects. Today, we’re introducing a few more capabilities across all our use cases that deepen what teams can do with Transform—from infrastructure migration to mainframe and Windows app modernization to code modernization. Organizations that move early here are building advantages that compound over time. Much more ahead. A deep dive into AWS Transform’s first year and our newest capabilities: https://lnkd.in/ghz4Jz87

Scott Mullins shared thisCongratulations to our partner, Fiserv, on the launch of its agentic AI operating system, agentOS, which leverages Amazon Bedrock to bring enterprise-grade AI infrastructure, multi-model flexibility, and the global scale of AWS to every institution Fiserv serves. As Dhivya Suryadevara, Co-President of Fiserv, said: "AI will fundamentally reshape how financial institutions operate. agentOS is the first place where banks can run Fiserv's agents, build their own, and deploy from a curated set of partners — all under the same governance, identity, and audit controls. The pilots are already proving it works." This is the kind of enterprise-grade agentic AI deployment financial institutions need to help them change the way that work works. https://lnkd.in/exPsn7QS #AWS #FinancialServices #AgenticAI #CloudComputing #innovationFiserv Launches agentOS: The Operating System for Agentic AI in BankingFiserv Launches agentOS: The Operating System for Agentic AI in Banking

Scott Mullins reposted thisScott Mullins reposted thisTalk to any CTO standing up AI in production and the same operational questions come up: who's the data processor, how does this plug into our identity stack, and can we keep procurement simple. Today we're launching the Claude Platform on AWS in general availability, a first of its kind offering for Anthropic. AWS customers get the full Claude API through the AWS account they already have. Authentication runs through AWS IAM. Audit through CloudTrail. Billing comes through a single AWS invoice and retires against committed spend. Every new Claude Platform feature and beta ships on AWS the same day it ships on our native API, including Claude Managed Agents, the advisor strategy, code execution, skills, and the MCP connector. For teams with regional data residency requirements, Claude on Amazon Bedrock remains available with AWS as the data processor. https://lnkd.in/ge_Cjj-k

Scott Mullins reposted thisScott Mullins reposted thisAmazon Web Services (AWS) is the first cloud provider to offer Anthropic's native Claude Platform experience directly through customers' accounts. What that means is builders get the full Claude Platform, native APIs, and console without leaving the AWS environment. You keep your existing IAM credentials, Marketplace billing, and CloudTrail logging. No separate systems. Whether you're building with Claude on Bedrock or through Claude Platform on AWS, you pick the approach that fits your needs. That's how it should work. Our partnership with Anthropic keeps getting stronger. More here: https://lnkd.in/esn9Ywbb

Scott Mullins liked thisScott Mullins liked thisA professional and personal update. After 7 exciting and rewarding years at Amazon Web Services (AWS), I’ve decided to take on a new challenge and have joined Tether.io as Head of Regulatory Affairs for Europe, working alongside Giles Dixon and an incredible team led by Paolo A. as Tether continues to expand its role in shaping the future of digital finance and technology. I’m incredibly grateful to my colleagues, teams, and mentors at AWS for the opportunities, support, and experiences over the years. It has been a privilege to work alongside so many talented people. Technology is advancing rapidly, and decentralized systems are increasingly transforming financial services, digital infrastructure, and AI. Tether is uniquely positioned at the center of this transformation, playing a leading role in advancing technologies that strengthen privacy, resilience, and individual sovereignty, while helping shape the financial and technological infrastructure of the digital age. As Europe enters a new phase of regulatory development across digital assets and emerging technologies, I look forward to contributing to constructive regulatory engagement and supporting innovation that is responsible, globally impactful, and helps position Europe at the forefront of digital finance and technological competitiveness. I’m excited for this next chapter and thankful to everyone who has been part of the journey so far — and especially to those who supported me following the loss of my father late last year. Gracias!

Scott Mullins liked thisScott Mullins liked thisI rarely take time to reflect but now is about as good a time as any. As I step away from the CEO role at Eventus, my heart is overflowing with pride. This has easily been the most rewarding and challenging experience of my professional life, and it is due to the group of people I had the honor of working with every day. From the RGM OGs to the almost-OGs like Scott Schroeder, Wade Bendele and Perry Barth, to the team workhorses like Katy Pritchard, David Mitchell, Nolan Schiff and Sharida McKenzie — Eventus doesn't exist without the tireless efforts and spectacular attitude these folks, and countless others who deserve a shoutout, exemplify on a 24/7 basis. I also need to give a few special mentions to a couple of folks near and dear to my heart. First, none of this happens without Jeff Bell — a truer partner you couldn't ask for. In the beginning, as we were trying to figure everything out, Jeff said "I'll take the internal stuff," which left me to deal with external, and the rest, as they say, is history. The other mention is to my amazing wife, Melissa Schwab, whose continuous support was invaluable and oftentimes necessary. To the investors who backed us early — the RGM founders led by Richard Gorelick, along with the great teams at LiveOak Ventures and Jump Capital — thank you for investing in the team when there wasn't much else to point at. Your conviction and continued support were instrumental to getting Eventus where it is today. To all of our clients — thank you for trusting us with something serious. You pushed us, challenged us, and made the platform what it is. Especially to those who, like our early investors, were willing to take a chance when we were either still very young or didn't necessarily have the specific domain expertise — John M. Murphy at Mizuho, Peter Elkins at Coinbase, Russ Abramson at Bank of America, JB Mackenzie and Eric Hains at Robinhood, Thomas C. at ErisX/Rothera and the amazing teams at Crypto.comand Belvedere Trading, LLC — your continued partnership remains invaluable. Congratulations to Cameron Routh on being named CEO, and thanks to the team at Terminus Capital Partners for their partnership in this next chapter. I remain a meaningful investor in Eventus and a believer in what this team will continue to build based on an incredible foundation of people and technology. TCP and Cam have a great plan and am excited to see them execute. Eventus has never been in a better spot and couldn’t be more supportive of this transition. We've always taken our mission personally because it matters. And it's in very capable hands going forward. Please stay in touch. — Travis

He also mentioned that AI is helping make services faster and simpler for users, especially in smaller cities where people prefer speaking in their own language. Giving the example of loan approvals, he said the process could become much quicker in the future with the help of AI.

Scott Mullins liked thisScott Mullins liked thisFor decades, researchers have argued that flat network topologies could make data centers faster, more resilient, and more efficient. The challenge was that nobody had figured out how to make them work reliably at real production scale. Amazon Web Services (AWS) has now done that. Today we’re sharing more about Resilient Network Graphs (RNG), a new AWS network architecture inspired by random graph theory that is now rolling out across AWS data centers globally. RNG gives traffic many more possible paths across the network, reducing bottlenecks and improving fault tolerance. In testing, it delivered up to 33% better throughput than traditional hierarchical designs while using significantly fewer networking devices and less power. What I especially love about this story is how it came together. Mathematicians, network engineers, optical engineers, and applied scientists across AWS worked for years to turn an academic idea into something deployable at AWS scale. This is exactly the kind of long-term invention work that powers AWS behind the scenes for customers every day. More here: https://lnkd.in/gjKF9fTH

Scott Mullins liked thisScott Mullins liked thisWe are seeing a rapid momentum shift across the financial services industry in Japan and Korea, where cloud adoption is accelerating from foundational modernization to a key driver of AI innovation, data transformation, resilience, and customer-centric growth. Against this backdrop, I’m excited to join Amazon Web Services (AWS) as Head of Financial Services Industry Development, Japan & Korea (Tokyo-based), at a time of rapid transformation; working across customers, partners, and teams to help shape the future of financial services in two of the world’s most dynamic markets. Across both markets, financial institutions are moving beyond cloud as simply infrastructure, leveraging it to power Agentic AI, Generative AI, real-time data platforms, digital banking innovation, stronger operational resilience, and increasingly personalized customer experiences. What was once transformation is quickly becoming the new baseline. Japan and Korea are two of the most dynamic and innovative financial markets in the world. From core system modernization and digital-native business models to the rapid adoption of AI and evolving regulatory expectations, the pace of change and the opportunity are remarkable. I’m honored to be joining AWS because I believe this is a defining moment to help customers harness cloud and AI not only to transform technology, but to reimagine what financial services can deliver for businesses and consumers alike. I’m incredibly excited to begin this new chapter with such a talented team and to partner with financial institutions across the region. A heartfelt thank you to Lynne Zeldenryk, John Kain, and Saurabh Verma for your support, trust, and encouragement throughout this journey. And last but certainly not least, to my good friend and mentor Nick Wilde MAICD for your invaluable guidance and mentorship along the way. 日本・韓国のお客様やパートナーの皆さまと協業し、新たな価値を共に創り上げていけることを楽しみにしております。 일본과 한국의 고객 및 파트너 여러분과 함께 새로운 기회를 만들어 갈 수 있게 되어 매우 기쁘며 기대하고 있습니다.

An information processing system provisions a client account for a user to enable a client computer associated with the user to store information in an elastic storage system and to prohibit the client computer, the information processing system, and the elastic storage system from altering and from deleting the stored information during an authorized retention period. Data messages are received from one or more client computers and include information that is required to be stored for the authorized retention period. That information is transmitted via one or more data communications networks to the elastic storage system for storage so that the stored information is non-rewriteable and non-erasable during the authorized retention period. The secure data center receives the retrieved copy and provides it to the user device. The elastic storage system permits deletion, modification, or destruction of the stored information only when a trusted independent third party having predetermined authentication information associated with the client account provides the predetermined authentication information to the elastic storage system.

The CFTC issued staff guidance on tokenized collateral in derivatives markets on December 8, 2025, and expanded that guidance with FAQs on March 20, 2026 — confirming that registered futures commission merchants may accept tokenized U.S. Treasury securities, money market funds, bitcoin, ether, and USDC as customer margin collateral. The guidance treats tokenized assets as technology-neutral variants of existing asset classes and requires FCMs to analyze each asset individually under the existing CFTC regulatory structure, covering legal enforceability, segregation, custody, and liquidity conditions. FCMs and clearing members operating in the U.S. derivatives markets must now assess their margining systems against CFTC Staff Letter 25-39 and Staff Letter 26-05 to determine which digital assets qualify as acceptable collateral. The pilot program permits tokenized collateral acceptance subject to conditions, and the accompanying FAQs address operational risk, haircuts, and valuation requirements.

In a recent statement, SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce warned that chains with centralized matching engines could be viewed as exchanges under U.S. regulation. That’s a challenge for many networks still reliant on single sequencers to control transaction flow. Metis took a different path. We built the first live Decentralized Sequencer on mainnet—ensuring transaction ordering is shared, verifiable, and governed by open, onchain rules. By distributing control across multiple staked operators, Metis maintains credible neutrality, resilience, and compliance alignment—paving the way for L2s to function as public infrastructure, not private exchanges. • Explore more: https://lnkd.in/gwprjgh6
