Can blockchain technology reduce the costs of remittances?
Room: Auditorium
Description
Following the OECD Blockchain Policy Forum 2019, the OECD Development Co-operation Directorate (DCD) drafted a paper titled: “Can Blockchain Technology help reduce the costs of remittances?’’. The paper reflects diverse perspectives on the intersection of blockchain technology and remittances. The session intends to discuss key elements of the paper and to identify missing research gaps that could potentially be explored further for enabling a favourable ecosystem that promotes the secure and responsible deployment of digital financial services, in particular, blockchain technology and effective development co-operation.
