A report was recently released by Nasdaq on the state of the world's financial system, detailing financial fraud and various other activities. Nasdaq (NDAQ) CEO and President Adena Friedman joins Yahoo Finance's Julie Hyman and Brian Sozzi from the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland to discuss the report, spot Bitcoin ETFs, outlook for Nasdaq, AI, and more. Financial fraud (00:00:00) "If you look at the problem that we're dealing with, we're dealing with money laundering and financial fraud. And it is a $3 trillion problem in terms of money that's laundering through the system and about a $500 billion issue with fraud. Those are just staggering statistics," Friedman said. "And then what we did was we broke it down into different types of money laundering activities, whether that's human trafficking or terrorist activity. And then in fraud you look at things like romance scams versus elderly abuse. And so you see these different human tragedies kind of playing out in the data. And that's one of the things that we try to do is bring the data and the analytics as to how big this problem was." Spot Bitcoin ETFs (00:04:16) "I don't think spot ETFs for crypto, for bitcoin necessarily is going to create any sort of new challenges. I think what that's saying is really more that the evolution of the crypto market, and particularly the Bitcoin market, is such that the underlying price formation is to the level that the SEC is willing to allow retail investors to invest in a security that's a layer on top of Bitcoin, right? They don't actually have to invest in Bitcoin itself," Friedman explained. "They can invest in a security that's in a regulated market that allows them to express their views on the future of Bitcoin prices, but they don't actually have to buy the Bitcoin themselves. There's still a lot of friction, I think, in the system around actual buying and selling of Bitcoin, but I also would say that it does make that asset class more accessible to retail. So the need for investor protection is as strong as it always has been." Company outlook (00:05:48) "We really have transformed to be a global technology company that serves the financial system. And of course, our markets are our foundation and they're extremely technologically driven, right? They're very advanced technology in itself. In fact, we have our first SEC approved AI order type that we're launching this quarter," Friedman said. "So what does that mean? It means that it's an order type that factors in like about 150 different factors every second to determine the ... speed at which certain orders should be executed to maximize the fill rate. It's a very esoteric rule, I mean an order type, but it shows that innovation is very, very alive inside the markets." AI (00:07:00) "I think that, well, we hope they (AI companies) come to market via Nasdaq. I do think that AI driven companies, AI enabled companies and AI companies themselves, those companies that can really help transform business. I think that those are the types of companies you'll see more and more of coming out to the public markets," Friedman said. "Very exciting time, I have to say, because every company can benefit from this next generation of technology. I think you can look at every industry and gen AI has applicability. So companies that help unlock that potential are going to be, I think, companies that a lot of investors are looking at." It's all part of Yahoo Finance's exclusive coverage from the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, where our team will speak to top decision-makers as well as preeminent leaders in business, finance, and politics about the world’s most pressing issues and priorities for the coming year.
