At Spectrum 2025 in the Cayman Islands, Marfire’s Sarah Wheeler joined the panel discussion “The Rise of DAOs: How Decentralised Organisations Could Reshape Business & Governance.”
The conversation explored Decentralised Autonomous Organisations (DAOs) and their potential to shape the future of the Cayman Islands’ financial services sector. Sarah discussed whether DAOs present a more agile and transparent governance model than traditional corporate boards, and considered the case for developing a bespoke legal framework tailored to DAOs - building on the highly successful foundation company vehicle already available in Cayman.
She also offered insight on the risks and practical challenges of integrating DAO structures into Cayman’s mature financial services ecosystem, emphasizing the importance of thoughtful regulation and active industry engagement.
Sarah’s participation highlights Marfire’s ongoing commitment to staying at the forefront of emerging trends in technology, finance, and governance, and to fostering meaningful dialogue around the future of corporate structuring in the jurisdiction.
