In this episode, Carl Kennedy shares his observations about the recent Futures and Derivatives Law Report Digital Asset Leadership Summit that he helped put together, his work as the managing editor for the 2025 Chambers Global Overview on Derivatives, and more!  

Listen in to hear some perspectives and reflections from Carl’s initial entry to this space, from learning an almost new language while working with ISDA to leading the CFTC’s cross-border jurisdiction guidance in the wake of the Dodd-Frank Act and moving to private practice. 

Digital assets and what to expect next from the CFTC at this pivotal moment in its history are top of mind as Carl also shares some candid observations gleaned from his fireside chat with Acting Chairman Pham at the recent leadership summit.
