Mastercard獲選參與「數碼港元」先導計劃
Mastercard(MA.US)宣布,獲選參與金管局的「數碼港元」先導計劃,並於今年進行的首輪試驗,提出的用例將展示央行數碼貨幣(CBDC)的互聯互通,為CBDC持有人提供了一種創建零售層面央行數碼貨幣的方法,該版本可以在任何公有、需授權或私有區塊鏈上使用。
為展示此功能,Mastercard將透過使用零售層面央行數碼貨幣,模擬在公有區塊鏈上購買虛擬貨品。透過反覆試驗,Mastercard期望所得的成果和經驗能支持金管局對可能實施「數碼港元」的分析和探索。
Mastercard香港及澳門總經理陳一芳表示,隨著全球經濟更為接受電子支付,Mastercard致力支持金管局及其他中央銀行發展例如CBDC等更現代化的不同支付方式,使其無縫融入現有支付模式,同時維護貨幣政策和金融體系穩定。
