Structure

INFTF is structured as a lean institutional foundation by design. Our focus is on shaping ideas, building trusted partnerships, and enabling systemic change, not on operating large programs ourselves. This model gives us the clarity, speed, and neutrality needed to work effectively across jurisdictions, technologies, and regulatory environments.

Why lean matters

INFTF acts as a neutral institutional enabler. Our role is to connect regulators, financial institutions, and technology providers, and to help shape the frameworks that make cross-border innovation possible.

Operating lean ensures focus, neutrality, and the ability to work with a wide range of partners without competing with them. This approach is both deliberate and sustainable: it is what allows INFTF to operate with credibility and impact across multiple jurisdictions.
