We often discuss blockchain technologies and crypto in reference to personal wealth-building strategies and personal finance. However, financial institutions that lend money in an institutional setting are also exploring how they can utilize blockchain to speed up and simplify the lending process. Sid Powell is here to talk about his platform Maple that allows for these transactions, what this change means for the future of lending, and so much more. This week, episode 168 of the Tech Intersect™ Podcast is about the future of lending in a decentralized world!

Sid Powell is the CEO and Co-founder of Maple, a private credit platform built on the rails of blockchain’s distributed data ledger technology for institutional lenders to run alternative credit strategies. Prior to Maple, Sid was the Treasurer at Angle Finance in Melbourne and a Senior Associate of Securitisation for Corporate Finance at the National Australia Bank. 



Some of the talking points Sid and I go over in this episode include:

  • What is Maple and what makes it different than other lending platforms?
  • The power of utilizing stablecoins for transactions.
  • How institutions who want to lend via blockchain are navigating the differences in regulations between countries.
  • How lending via blockchain will improve accessibility and diversity in the digital money space.
