OVERVIEW

The last couple of years has seen a huge fundamental shift in the way finance is perceived. The concept of money itself is being revisited. Blockchain technology and its most popular use case - cryptocurrencies have brought in this paradigm shift.

Numerous central banks globally are at various stages of development of their own Central Bank Digital Currency. As of January 2022, 9 countries have already launched a CBDC, 41 are in research phase and 14 are running pilot programmes. The development and exploration of a CBDC has picked up pace over the last year.

The Indian central bank, The Reserve Bank of India is also exploring the possibility of introducing the digital Rupee. With this India will join a select group of countries that have a CBDC.

This development makes it imperative for bankers to have a good understanding on what a CBDC is, on its underlying technology – blockchain and on the other digital assets that have gained sound bytes and attention in the last couple of years.

3.0 University has designed and developed a programme, especially for bankers, that will focus on the critical aspects of a central bank digital currency, the key principles, the numerous pilot projects that are ongoing across the globe, the benefits that economy and governments can derive from this intervention and the risk involved.

This course will provide you, as bankers, an overview and understanding on central bank digital currency and will equip you to appreciate the nuances of the digital rupee as a CBDC introduced by the RBI in the future.

Educative programmes of the 3.0 University help participants navigate their way into the crypto world. They offer online courses that are designed for those who are interested in learning cryptocurrency in detail and to gain proficiency and knowledge about blockchain.
