DERIVING VALUE
THROUGH
BLOCKCHAIN INVESTMENT

Blockchain is a distributed ledger for maintaining cryptographically signed, irrevocable and tamperproof record of transaction-based data shared by all participants in a network. Blockchain and similar distributed ledger technologies provide trust in untrusted environments, eliminating the need for a trusted central authority. Blockchain provides business value by removing business friction amongst participants. It does this by making the ledger independent of individual applications and participants and replicating the ledger across a distributed network to create a consensus-based authoritative record of significant events. Everyone with a particular level of access sees the same information at the same time. Blockchain’s distributed trust architecture enables untrusted parties to execute transactions and create and exchange value using Blockchain assets.

Blockchain has found a wide range of applications across all business domains including asset tracking, claims, identity management, record keeping, loyalty and reward management, payment/settlement, provenance, smart cities / Internet of Things, and trade finance.
