What We Do
Bridgforte’s Executive Tables convene senior leaders - policymakers, regulators, financial institutions and development partners - for structured, candid dialogue on the governance questions shaping financial systems across Africa and the Global South. By bringing together leaders who rarely share the same table, these convenings generate ideas that are difficult to produce in isolation.
Convening · New York
Bridgforte’s convening took place on the sidelines of the 80th United Nations General Assembly in New York. It brought together global leaders from policy, regulation and industry for candid dialogue on trust and governance in increasingly platform-led financial systems. The discussions surfaced the questions that now anchor Bridgforte’s research agenda and established the Dialogues as a distinctive space for cross-sector conversation on the future of finance.
Working-Level Convening
Building on the momentum of UNGA80, the February Executive Table gathered senior practitioners for a deeper, working-level examination of the governance challenges raised in New York. The structured format enabled candid exchange between leaders who rarely share the same table, connecting regulatory experience, institutional practice and research insight. Perspectives from this convening directly informed the development of Bridgforte’s flagship report, Trust Architecture in Platform-Led Finance.
