• Named “Project Cedar Phase II x Ubin+”, the joint effort is expected to improve designs for atomic settlement of cross-border cross-currency transactions using wCBDCs, MAS said in a statement v petek. 

• The experiment also aims to reduce settlement risk in cross-border transactions.

• “The Project Cedar Phase II x Ubin+ experiment is not intended to advance any specific policy outcome, nor is it intended to signal that the Federal Reserve will make any imminent decisions about the appropriateness of issuing a retail or wholesale CBDC, nor how one would necessarily be designed,” MAS clarified.

• Details of the experiment and findings will be released in 2023, MAS said.

• V začetku tega meseca, MAS announced Project Ubin+, a collaborative initiative with international partners to explore cross-border foreign exchange settlements using wCBDC.
