Blockchain as the Bard of Securities Settlement: A New Way to Think About Trust, Speed, and Openness
Abstract: One of the most promising uses of blockchain technology in financial markets is to modernize securities settlement procedures. Centralized intermediaries, like clearing houses and custodians often cause delays, operational inefficiencies, and counterparty risk in traditional settlement systems.

This article looks at the legal, regulatory, and operational effects …
