Adam Katz is the founder and CEO of Kooltra, the FX and cross-border payments platform used by banks, credit unions, fintechs and payment businesses. Kooltra's clients run more than $500 billion in FX and $50 billion in payments through the platform each year.
Before Kooltra, Adam was Global Head of Systems Architecture & FX Trading Operations at Velocity Trade. The back-office platform he built there became Kooltra, and he has spent the 12 years since building cloud-native infrastructure that helps FX and international payment providers scale their operations and compliance.
On podcasts and stages, Adam talks about what banks can learn from fintechs, why business clients take FX elsewhere and what would keep them, and how stablecoins, tokenized deposits and real-time rails will change how money moves across borders.
