Distributed ledger technology, also known as blockchain, has the potential to revolutionize the way trade transactions are conducted and processed. In the post-pandemic world, DLT is being used to enable secure, transparent, and efficient trade finance processes that can help to speed up trade recovery. For example, DLT can be used to create digital trade finance platforms that allow buyers and sellers to transact more easily and with greater visibility into the transaction. Additionally, DLT can be used to create smart contracts that automate trade finance processes and reduce the need for intermediaries. Some specific examples of how DLT is being used in trade finance today include the Marco Polo Network, which uses blockchain technology to streamline trade finance processes, and TradeLens, a blockchain-based platform for the global supply chain. Ultimately, the use of DLT in trade finance has the potential to significantly reduce costs, increase efficiency, and promote trade recovery in the post-pandemic world.
