Episode Description
The buzz: Show me the money? Our current financial world is rife with inefficiencies: cross-border payments take days and cost money, inter-bank funds are slow, accessing money is cumbersome, trading securities takes time. Hail, cryptocurrency! Bitcoin and blockchain were created to solve some of these challenges. How does it work? Should your business, your industry, and you personally adopt this new form of currency? What are the risks? The experts speak. Angus Champion de Crespigny, EY: “It's not worth doing something unless you were doing something that someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing” (Terry Pratchett). Richard McCammon, Delego: “…Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted” (William B. Cameron). Gerlinde Zibulski, SAP: “The difficulty lies not so much in developing new ideas, but in escaping from old ones” (John Maynard Keynes).
