After years of pilots and policy debates, CBDCs are entering a second phase — where the question is no longer if they will exist, but how they can deliver real-world value increasingly moving towards digital money.
Around the world, central banks and market innovators have been developing under-the-radar CBDC use cases that solve immediate challenges in payments, treasury, and financial inclusion.
In this session, central bank and private sector leaders will discuss the role that wholesale and retail CBDCs will play in the digital money ecosystem, alongside stablecoins, tokenised deposits, and existing rails - from unlocking cross-border wholesale settlement to serving as secure and inclusive public money.
