Speculation abounds on how new digital technologies will alter money and payments, with a great deal of emphasis placed on cryptocurrencies, blockchain and decentralised finance.
Peter Ware, Head of Research & Development at the ADGM Academy Research Centre, sat down with Professor Alistair Milne, Loughborough University, and Ronit Ghose, Head of Future of Finance Research, Citi, to discuss their views on money and the drivers of change.
