About Us
The US–UK
Fintech Bridge
The global payments and fintech landscape is evolving at an unprecedented pace, demanding a forward-thinking approach that embraces the entire financial ecosystem.
As borders blur and technology outpaces policy, the industry faces a critical need for a unified, cross-border voice that can move beyond mere regulatory prediction to actively shape the global policy landscape.
U.S. Federal and State Regulatory Alignment
The Fintech Accord ensures its frameworks are not developed in isolation.
Our initiatives align closely with emerging federal legislation, including the GENIUS Act and CLARITY Act, enabling:
Interoperability across jurisdictions
Consistent consumer protection standards
Seamless state–federal collaboration
This creates a unified system—not competing ones.
State-First Strategy
Core Philosophy
In the United States, innovation often starts at the state level.
We embrace this reality.
States act as regulatory laboratories—moving faster, testing smarter, and creating frameworks that can scale nationally and globally.
The Fintech Accord is pursuing a historic Memorandum of Understanding between Georgia and the United Kingdom intended to create a direct transatlantic fintech corridor.
This “fintech bridge” will also serve to connect Atlanta and London—two of the world’s most critical payments hubs—enabling:
Faster international expansion
Greater regulatory clarity
Seamless cross-border innovation
The Georgia-UK Fintech Bridge transforms regional strength into global opportunity.
From Atlanta
to the World
Operationally Headquartered in Georgia’s “Transaction Alley”, the Fintech Accord develops policy where fintech actually lives.
Initiatives like the Georgia Stablecoin Payment Act serve as:
Real-world testing environments
Proven regulatory models
Scalable frameworks for federal and international adoption
Local roots. Global impact.
The Transatlantic Regulatory Model
The Fintech Accord operates within the three most important regulatory capitals in the world:
Washington, D.C.
Direct federal engagement through legislative fly-ins and agency collaboration.
London
Active dialogue with the FCA, Bank of England, HM Treasury and Parliament.
Brussels
Engagement with the European Commission and Parliament to impact EU-wide frameworks.
Together, this tri-capital approach ensures influence at every stage of policy creation.
The Stablecoin Institute
Dedicated digital asset subsidiary
An inspiration of the Fintech Accord, The Stablecoin Institute, LLC was established as a specialized subsidiary focused exclusively on stablecoins, cryptocurrencies, and digital assets. This dedicated structure enables a deeper, more
agile approach to addressing the unique challenges and opportunities within the evolving digital asset ecosystem.
State level legislation, approved and passed
Through a strategic partnership with the regulatory pioneering Georgia Department of Banking and Finance,
The Stablecoin Institute has passed the Georgia Stablecoin Payment Act (HB1272). This initiative establishes clear, consistent standards for consumer protection and ensures interoperability across jurisdictions.
Designed to be substantially similar to the federal GENIUS act, this bill sets a powerful precedent for effective state–federal collaboration in digital asset regulation. This new framework leaves space and opportunities for improvements to the existing legislation to be incorporated over time by including further industry inputs. The Stablecoin Institute will serve to convene, coalesce and coordinate industry feedback and contributions during the process.
Focus: safety, soundness, regulatory clarity, and trust
The Stablecoin Institute's core mission is to define and
uphold a “pure quill” standard for the digital asset industry.
By prioritizing safety, financial soundness, and regulatory clarity, its aim is bringing credible oversight and long-term stability to a rapidly growing and often uncertain market.
