Summary

Many digital business pros feel that they need to get a better understanding of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs); here, we provide guidance on representative country-specific initiatives. While widespread issuance of CBDCs isn’t imminent, practically all countries are assessing the options and implications. Whether or not distributed ledger technology (DLT, aka blockchain) will be part of the technology stack for CBDCs remains an open question. Much of the reporting on CBDCs is unreliable and misleading. Use this resource collection as a starting point; if you need to dig deeper, go directly to the source or seek guidance from those involved with research and pilot projects.
