From centralisation to decentralisation; how blockchain-oriented fintech can benefit the financial sector

Additional comments.

Blockchain has the potential to digitize the entire trade finance lifecycle while increasing security and efficiency, lower fraud, human error, and overall counterparty risk.

From a productivity stand point, blockchain intervention allows the whole banking process to be automated within a given set of variables and guidelines and certain banking functions can work 24/7 instead of 9 to 5. In the example of payment, the current system for cross border transactions can take up to a week to clear, with the help of blockchain the amount can be cleared instantly.

On top of everything, it can enable more transparent governance as all the transactions are trackable and traceable on the blockchain.
