Corporates, in particular, Capgemini said, could potentially use the blockchain to send and receive smart contracts with their business partners, streamline payments to overseas suppliers, strength ID management, secure relationships with smaller players and replace their current payment and transaction processing rails.

This means that while banks would be wise to invest in blockchain startups for the potential they can bring to their own businesses, the rest of the market will find their own potential in the blockchain, and banks will be forced to adapt.

The report’s authors recognize that while some banks are already investing in the blockchain in recognition of its potential to change the entire financial services industry’s way of operation, the technology is young, regulation is inconsistent and the actual impact of blockchain is largely only hypothetical at present.

With this in mind, Capgemini’s report concluded that banks not only should consider taking a proactive approach to blockchain technology (as opposed to a reactive one) but should look to their peers as the tool remains in its infancy.

“In this environment, it seems that some common assessment, collective thinking and sharing of potential opportunities for — and impacts on — banks could be useful,” the report concluded. “While some banks are independently analyzing the potential of blockchain technology, our current point of view is that a common understanding would help all banks develop blockchain solutions more quickly and efficiently.” Ah, the Charlotte Motor Speedway roval.
