“I thank Central Banking for this award, which is testament to the hard work and dedication of our staff and our central bank partners in the BIS Innovation Hub.

“The experiments conducted by BdF demonstrated that a wholesale CBDC could significantly improve cross-border and cross-currency payments through the optimisation of payment processes. The work conducted by the international community, notably under the aegis of the G20, should further explore this dimension: our ability to improve cross-border transactions will be a challenge in the coming years"
