We had a first look at Distributed Ledger Technology (predominantly blockchain) and cryptocurrencies in late 2017. This new report aims to dig one level deeper and provide a comprehensive assessment of both the potential and associated risks of this emerging technology. 

We explore its potential impact across a wide variety of areas:

  • Governance & law 
  • Economic & social structures
  • Financial products & services
  • Identity & personal management
  • Sustainability

CIO Insights Reflections: A deeper look – Distributed Ledger Technology

In Europe, Middle East and Africa as well as in Asia Pacific this material is considered marketing material, but this is not the case in the U.S. No assurance can be given that any forecast or target can be achieved. Forecasts are based on assumptions, estimates, opinions and hypothetical models which may prove to be incorrect. Past performance is not indicative of future returns. Investments come with risk. The value of an investment can fall as well as rise and you might not get back the amount originally invested at any point in time. Your capital may be at risk.
