DLT-based payments: efficiency meets sustainability

As global payment systems evolve under regulatory pressure, customer demand, and rising ESG expectations, Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) is gaining traction as a transformative force. By enhancing transparency, reducing intermediaries, and lowering costs, DLT addresses long-standing inefficiencies in payments.

This whitepaper explores how DLT can:

  • Streamline cross-border payments by tackling cost, speed, access, and transparency challenges.
  • Support Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) to strengthen monetary systems, increase traceability, and broaden financial inclusion.
  • Align with ESG priorities by offering energy-efficient consensus mechanisms, enabling carbon-offset solutions, and reinforcing transparency and accountability.
