Jeff Handler is Co-Founder and Chief Commercial Officer at OpenTrade, a London-based institutional-grade stablecoin yield infrastructure platform enabling fintechs and neobanks to offer RWA-backed yield products on USDC, USDT, and EURC.
Jeff graduated with a BS in Political Science from Washington University in St. Louis and built a career entirely in fintech, working at PwC, Netki, the Marco Polo Network, and most recently as Solutions Architect at Centre, the Circle and Coinbase USDC governance consortium.
