According to The Economic Times, Reserve Bank of India (RBI) taps top banks for blockchain-based trade financing project. HDFC bank, ICICI Bank and State Bank are among nearly a dozen top lenders the central bank is engaging with to run a blockchain-based pilot project centred on trade financing. If successful, it could help prevent loan frauds by the likes of Nirav Modi and Mehul Choksi, fugitive borrowers that gamed the system to siphon off thousands of crores of rupees. Belgium-based SettleMint, US-based Corda Technologies and IBM would provide technology support for the project driven by the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) Innovation Hub in Bangalore, three people familiar with the matter said. Axis Bank, Bank of Baroda and Union Bank of India are also involved.
