Revolutionising financial systems for enhanced system efficiency, financial inclusion, and payments innovation.
CBDC is a transformative innovation in the financial sector, offering a digital form of central bank money. The concept emerged from the need to modernise the financial system, enhance payment efficiencies, and promote financial inclusion. Unlike cryptocurrencies, CBDCs are issued and regulated by central banks, ensuring stability and trust. The evolution of CBDCs can be traced back to the increasing digitisation of economies and the rise of fintech innovations, which highlighted the limitations of traditional banking systems and the need for a more resilient and inclusive financial infrastructure.
PwC has assisted several clients with their requirements related to CBDC. Some of these include conducting market analysis for gaining better insights in the Indian payments market and delivering a market entry strategy along with applicable use cases and business development plans to the client.
PwC engages with industry players to assist in knowledge-sharing sessions and boosting awareness about CBDC in the market.
