The development of distributed ledger technologies (DLT) and the rise of digital currency in the last decade has demonstrated that new technologies can disrupt well- established centuries-old concepts such as fiat currency and physical money.
Central banks around the world are actively conducting CBDC experiments with support from major technology companies to assess the potential of this new technology in the evolution of their currencies.
While central banks see merit in developing CBDCs to support monetary policy, sovereignty and distribution of money, there is a need ecosystem, including banks and other financial service stakeholders like payment service providers to deliver on those objectives. In this transformative initiative in India, banks will have to setup and expand the adoption of digital currencies.
Come and participate in a discussion led by experts on the current trends and insights regarding CBDCs worldwide. Discover potential use cases and explore how banks can create value-added opportunities, while also addressing the necessary technology architecture and infrastructure for a seamless deployment and acceleration of CBDC initiatives within their organizations.
