Central Bank Digital Currencies

Speakers: Julia Chatterley, Axel Lehmann, Kristalina Georgieva, Sethaput Suthiwartnarueput, François Villeroy de Galhau

Central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) have the potential to reshape financial systems, changing the landscape of payments and banking. More countries are experimenting with CBDCs and some are beginning to bring them to market, potentially offering lessons for the rest of the world.

What are the macroeconomic and geopolitical implications surrounding the roll-out of CBDCs? How can the public and private sectors work together to ensure that CBDC development ultimately benefits consumers and minimizes risks to financial stability?

This is a livestreamed session.
