Fortune Magazine has listed Binance.US CEO Catherine Coley and eToro CEO Yoni Assia in the “40 Under 40” list of the most influential young leaders for the year 2020 under the finance section.

Yoni Assia, on the other hand, is the Founder and CEO of eToro, the world’s largest social investment network. It offers one of the world’s most popular stock-buying apps with more than 13 million users in over 100 countries.

Fortune noted that the 2020 list is different from the ones done previously as it reflects a series of transformation that the business scene has undergone during this pandemic year. In total, there are five different categories covered: Finance, Technology, Healthcare, Government and Politics, and Media and Entertainment.
For this year’s 40 Under 40, we’re highlighting 40 influential people in each of these five categories:
💰 Finance
📲 Technology
🏥 Healthcare

The finance category also includes other notable cryptocurrency industry leaders such as Bakkt President Adam White, a prominent member of the “Coinbase Mafia,” as well as Anchorage Co-Founder Diogo Mónica.
“We needed to go bigger—and search more widely. Just one list of 40 emerging leaders wouldn’t be enough,” the business magazine explained. This is the reason why each category holds the top 40 people under the age of 40 — making a total of 200 individuals across all sectors.
The very first “40 Under 40” list, which was published back in 2012, was topped by Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, and former Yahoo! CEO Marissa Mayer.
