Yes they will.
At least
they have decided to put a lot of energy and investment into finding out if
they can use it. Nordea and SEB in the Nordic are members of the DLG
(Distributed Ledger Group) together with some 40 other banks, including Goldman
Sachs, Citibank, BBVA and Santander. There are other groups of banks as well.
Blockchain
may completely revolutionize the whole banking industry.
It might
enable you to pay your invoices at close to zero cost and in seconds. Even
payment cross borders of countries will be low cost and almost instant. The
technology also enables contract to be shared and securely signed between banks
and customers, so called “smart contracts”. “Smart contracts” might also
include a Java Script type of macro, for example “First change ownership of the
asset, then do the payment”.
I will come
back with a better description on the Blockchain technology within a few weeks.
For now I will just inform you that I will be on a Blockchain panel at SWIFT
Nordic conference in Oslo early March.
Have a look, agenda day 2:
