Central Bank of Brazil Digital Currency
On December 3rd, IFL Dialogues hosts the Central Bank of Brazil for a dialogue about the CBDC – Central Bank Digital Currency pilot.
December 3rd, Rio de Janeiro
Despite their enormous impact on markets, the more than 5,000 cryptocurrencies have not yet been configured in the classic functions of money as a means of payment, a unit of purchase, or a store of value. Even so, the topic “digital currencies” has spurred, and continues to spur, interest from both the public and private sectors.
A 2020 survey of 66 central banks by the Bank for International Settlements shows that more than 86% of them are working on Central Bank Digital Currencies projects. The private sector also has demonstrated an increasingly growing appetite for operating in the segment.
The theme is of strategic importance for any country. As networks of new digital currencies grow, the balance of power of traditional currencies is sensitive to changes not only in distribution but also in the flow of trade and even sanctions.
On December 3, IFL Dialogues hosts the Central Bank of Brazil for a dialogue about the Central Bank Digital Currency pilot.
