Liz Lumley and Amalia Illgner sit down with Keith Bear, fellow at the Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance, to discuss whether tokenisation can enhance the functioning of the monetary system. They also discuss the recently launched Project Agorá from the Bank for International Settlements that builds on its unified ledger concept and whether Swift should be worried by these developments.
