On this episode of “Money Reimagined,” Michael Casey and Sheila Warren speak with the Head of Research at the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), Hyun Song Shin, about the recent release of the Annual Economic Report; discussing the tokenization of deposits and the creation of a unified ledger in which tokenized assets, deposits, and CBDCs could interact in the same platform. Casey, Warren, and Shin take a closer look at the challenges central banks are currently facing and dive into the immobilizing or locking of real-world assets and the legal impediments to tokenization.
