 Session Length:

Blockchain is a combination of technologies creating networks to secure trust among the stakeholders of a series of transactions. It operates on distributed ledger technology (DLT) to facilitate authentication by the users and for storing the information for future reference. The process is done through cryptography and across a peer-to-peer network without the need of any central authority.

Blockchain is presently used in financial transactions, land registration transactions, diamond industry etc. Insurance companies, healthcare sector, trade finance and other sectors are exploring the need, ways, extent, and protocols to adopt blockchain technology.

Blockchain is stated to address and mitigate several risks in financial transactions and therefore Blockchain has been a buzz word. While Blockchain could address several risks, as any new technology, this could also be fraught with its own risks. As such, the pros and cons of Blockchain technology need expert deliberations.

The webinar aims to bring together top business leaders from a diverse field of finance, banking, insurance and ivy league academia to share experience and perspectives of Blockchain as a Risk Management solution, the related challenges, opportunities and best practices.
