DAY 2 – 15TH NOVEMBER

Wednesday, October 11th, 2017

13:30 The Big Debate: Blockchain crossing the post-trade world: Does this development have the potential to signal the end of clearing and settlement as we know it or is this just a fantasy?

The threat of CCP disruption and disintermediation: Can distributed ledgers fully replace centralised clearing and settlement utilities?
Are the arguments for Blockchain without contention? – it reduces post-trade costs, mitigates risk, promotes transparency and enables real-time efficiency
Can Blockchain seamlessly fit into an existing ecosystem of technology without major consequences? – it reduces netting benefits, increases systemic risk in relation to instantaneous settlement and smart contracts, is ungovernable and targetable by hackers?
Real-time settlement, cost reduction and the elimination of counterparty risk: Could the proposed benefits of a distributed ledger be achieved independently of this technology?
