The BOJ and central banks’ views on the impact FinTech may have on financial markets
Event Report
Mr. Shuji Kobayakawa, Associate Director General, Bank of Japan
In February 2016, the Financial Stability Board added Fintech to its list of priorities. The FSB is currently examining whether the growing FinTech sector presents any risk to the financial system. They want to assess if the international regulatory frameworks are able to manage systemic risks that may arise from this type of technological change.
In this third seminar in our series on Fintech, Mr. Shuji Kobayakawa will present views from the BOJ and central banks on the possible impact Fintech may have and areas of opportunities and challenges. His presentation will include:
· Recent trends in FinTech: unbundling and rebundling.
· Common interests in central banking: digital currencies and blockchain.
· Opportunities and challenges from central bank’s perspectives.
