Central banks therefore do accept un unse secure red as asse sets Relaxing the assumption that central banks only lend on a secured basis opens possibilities1

1: Once upon a time the thought of relaxing the assumption that paper money could be unbacked (by gold) was unthinkable!

…but the net effect is the same is you put a bank in the middle

Why would we even consider a crypto-banking world?

  • Real-time transparency of financial system (critical

for policy making)

  • Reduction of credit risk (and more importantly

elimination of bank runs)

  • Reduction of settlement risk (atomic swaps as other

assets are issued onto a “sovereign blockchain”)

  • Increased stability of banking system (less reliance
  • n TBTF institutions)
  • AML improved
  • Codification of money
  • Financial inclusion due to lower cost base

Ben Benefit its of

  • f cr

crypto-bankin ing Ris Risks

  • Increased reliance on prudent central bank policies

(creation of money would vest purely with the central bank – no fractional reserve system – narrow banking system) – a central bank funding curve could emerge

  • Risks of unknown technology and systems
  • Large transformation from credit risk to security risk

(as with physical cash)

What does all this mean for Banking in 2030?

Banks need to find ways to meet their governance process but not stifle their agility to adapt to an increasingly fast-changing world

  • “Currency under

management” – anticipate and provide storage services for new asset classes

  • Decoupled from storage
  • f value
  • Increased data (private

and public) for quicker/ more informed decisions (credit committees take too long)

  • Improved access to

derivatives and insurance in a form palatable to clients
