Taiwan Central Bank Concludes Wholesale CBDC Study<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The central bank will continue to work on platform design while soliciting input from academicians and business professionals, Deputy Governor Mei-lie Chu stated on December 7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chu described Banking 4.0, or “services embedded in customers' daily lives,” in a lengthy address to bankers. This included incorporating sophisticated mobile and digital technology<\/a> and artificial intelligence into the banking industry. CBDC comprised roughly fifty percent of her presentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Concerning research from the Bank for International Settlements, Chu stated that she recognized the benefits of CBDCs and the tokenization of physical assets. To further elaborate:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cA central bank currency with clearing finality can serve as the operational basis for tokenization.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Particularly, Chu mentioned unified ledger technology. To facilitate system interoperability, a unified ledger, as its name suggests, operates within a “partitioned data environment” using a single ledger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CBDC Tracker reports that Taiwan initiated CBDC research in 2020. It has made significant progress in developing a CBDC for retail use and has already piloted one with five commercial institutions and five consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chu stated that interoperability with other payment systems and bank disintermediation remained unresolved in Taiwan's CBDC research. Chu added that the central bank is developing a CBDC in a “prudent” manner and has no timetable for a decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
