International Group of Finance Leaders Says Ripple’s XRP Remittance Network Leapfrogs Traditional Banking System

 

The Daily Hodl has an interesting report of a report... DIGITAL CURRENCIES AND STABLECOINS Risks, Opportunities, and Challenges Ahead by the Group of 30. Not sure who they are but they seem to have a few finance and economics experts amongst them. Ripple gets a mention.

"COORDINATING THE INTRODUCTION OF GLOBAL OFFICIAL-SECTOR STABLECOINS Carney (2019) has raised the question of whether a globally coordinated “systemic hegemonic currency” could dampen the spillover shocks associated with the dominance of the US dollar as a reserve currency. A systemic hegemonic currency could, for example, be a stablecoin backed by a basket of deposits at different central banks. It is possible that such a stablecoin could be valuable for cross-border payments, serving a function similar to that offered in the private sector by Ripple, a real-time gross settlement system, currency exchange, and remittance network whose digital currency, XRP, leapfrogs slow and expensive correspondent banking."

Jacob Frenkel stepped down as chairman of JP Morgan last year to lead the G30 board.

Interesting that this comes out a year after the the Swiss central bank conference in May 2019 where Brad garlinghouse presented Ripples vision to alle the Central bankers.
