The Future Of Liquidity

The fundamental dilemma of credit is as old as civilization: risk.

But a complete digitization of the financial system will enable us to change the nature of credit and reduce its risk. The road to a complete transformation of the system still seems long, but developments are already emerging that financial service providers cannot afford to ignore: the traditional approach to lending will give way to a financial ecosystem that fully incorporates digitization, connectivity, and technology to achieve unprecedented clarity about the risk of specific assets.

This future analysis provides an introduction to the transformation of the financial system and offers food for thought on how companies and financial service providers can anticipate these developments early enough to successfully embrace them.
