Insights on Unified Ledger Concept from JP Morgan and Circle at BIS Innovation Summit

The Bank of International Settlements (BIS) has introduced a groundbreaking concept known as the Unified Ledger, which aims to support central bank money, tokenized deposits, and digital assets all on the same network. This innovative infrastructure eliminates the need for transaction messaging and inefficiencies, while also enabling programmability.

During the BIS Innovation Summit, key figures in the industry, such as JP Morgan’s Umar Farooq and Circle’s Dante Disparte, shared their insights on the Unified Ledger concept. Farooq emphasized the necessity of a Unified Ledger, highlighting the limitations of public blockchain ledgers for large transactions. He stressed the importance of trusted transactions between financial institutions with accountability in the system.

Farooq also addressed the issue of tokenomics on public blockchains, pointing out the challenges of convergence. He advocated for technology to be seen as a public good rather than a means of enrichment. Additionally, he discussed the importance of shared networks involving central banks and private institutions.

On the other hand, Disparte raised concerns about marginal improvements and geopolitics in the implementation of Unified Ledgers. He questioned why there haven’t been more significant improvements and highlighted the impact of geopolitics on cross-border payments integration. Disparte emphasized the need for innovation in the banking system to address issues such as speed and fragmentation of global payments.

Overall, the introduction of the Unified Ledger concept represents a significant step towards revolutionizing the financial industry and addressing key challenges in the current system. As industry leaders continue to explore and implement innovative solutions, the future of finance looks promising with the potential for greater efficiency and transparency.
