Abstract

This research investigates the transformative landscape of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) and their profound impact on global trade. The overarching aim is to comprehensively analyze the significance of CBDCs in fostering financial inclusion, driving economic growth, and reshaping international trade dynamics. The methodological approach involves an in-depth examination of existing CBDC initiatives worldwide, with a focus on case studies such as China's e-CNY, The Bahamas’ Sand Dollar, and Nigeria's e-Naira. By scrutinizing these implementations, the study aims to extract valuable insights into the diverse strategies and impacts of CBDC adoption. The research identifies key values added by CBDCs in the context of global trade. Foremost, CBDCs offer the potential to streamline cross-border transactions, reducing costs and enhancing efficiency. Their role in providing a transparent, traceable platform addresses challenges related to anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) risks, thereby contributing to a secure global financial ecosystem. A notable contribution is the enhancement of credit information for trade finance, enabling a more informed evaluation of the creditworthiness of businesses engaged in international transactions. To achieve the full realization of CBDC benefits in global trade, the study underscores the importance of factors such as interoperability, regulatory support, competition with other digital currencies, and widespread adoption by businesses and individuals. By synthesizing these aspects, the research aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of CBDCs’ transformative potential in global trade. Staying attuned to the evolving digital currency landscape is emphasized as crucial for stakeholders seeking to grasp the nuanced implications of CBDCs on the future of international trade.
