The "Blockchain Compendium: Retail Banking & Payments, Wholesale Banking & Payments, Wealth Management, Institutional Securities & Investments, and Insurance teams" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Blockchain technologies' primary challenge is their slow throughput. For bitcoin, for example, throughput stands at about seven transactions per second (card networks, by comparison, process tens of thousands per second). Many efforts seek to dramatically improve this number, and though we can expect vast improvements in short order, this will be the limiting factor for some time.

Aimed at C-suite executives and mid- and back-office senior managers working for sell-side firms, exchanges, financial markets utilities, and settlement-focused fintech firms, this Impact Report examines the operational complexities that distributed ledger technology (DLT) must address to prove sturdy enough to be a credible alternative in the post-trade space.

The insertion of DLT in the securities settlement market will be a long-term process that will bring cost savings to some participants and revenue losses to others as well as greater operational efficiencies that will shrink and increasingly automate capital markets' middle and back offices.
