Course Summary

This GLOMACS Payments, Digital Currencies and Cashless Economies training course simplifies the understanding of the cashless economy.  Fintech has become an inevitable buzzword in recent years.  The term is widely used to describe internet - and smartphone-enabled financial innovations that have gained prominence since the 2008 financial crisis. From artificial intelligence (AI) to cryptography, rapid advances in digital technology are changing the landscape of financial services, creating opportunities and challenges for consumers, service providers and regulators.

As interest in blockchain technology grows, companies face many decisions, challenges, and legal issues related to its adoption. Relevant topics include the overall design and control of blockchain systems, potential liability for the use (or misuse) of data contained in the system, and the consequences of immutably tracking data and transactions in near-real time.  The financial services industry is one of the sectors expected to benefit most from blockchain in the next few years. The main reason for this is that its "core functionality of validating and transmitting financial information and assets is very closely aligned with the core transformational impact of blockchain".
