  • BIS: Covid-19, Cash, And The Future Of Payments

    Date 03/04/2020

    Key takeaways

    • The Covid-19 pandemic has fanned public concerns that the coronavirus could be transmitted by cash.
    • Scientific evidence suggests that the probability of transmission via banknotes is low when compared
      with other frequently-touched objects, such as credit card terminals or PIN pads.
    • To bolster trust in cash, central banks are actively communicating, urging continued acceptance of cash
      and, in some instances, sterilising or quarantining banknotes. Some encourage contactless payments.
    • Looking ahead, developments could speed up the shift toward digital payments. This could open a divide
      in access to payments instruments, which could negatively impact unbanked and older consumers. The
      pandemic may amplify calls to defend the role of cash - but also calls for central bank digital currencies.

  • Japan Financial Services Agency: Preparation For Permanent Cessation Of LIBOR

    Date 03/04/2020

    Whereas reforming interest rate benchmarks have been developed in Japan and abroad, the possibility that the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) will be permanently discontinued after the end of 2021 has been increasing. While LIBOR is mainly referenced in derivative contracts such as interest rate swaps, it is also quoted in a significant number of cash products including corporate loans and bonds. Additionally, it is used in wide range of users, including not only financial institutions but also non-financial corporate and institutional investors. In this regard, there is the possibility of disruption to users if LIBOR were ceased without sufficient preparation.
