Bradesco<\/strong> has announced a trial of a blockchain-based digital wallet<\/strong> in partnership with eWally, a start-up accelerated in its InnovaBra program;<\/p>\n

Itau<\/strong> has created a blockchain center of excellence<\/strong> to map\/assess use cases and develop strategic technological partnerships;<\/p>\n

\n

The Brazilian Banks\u2019 Federation (FEBRABAN) is taking the lead on the development of cross-institution, sector-wise solutions:<\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

FEBRABAN created a blockchain working group<\/strong> to assess the impact of distributed ledger technologies<\/strong> on the sector. The group assembles several institutions together to promote an inclusive dialog \u2013 15 banks, the Central Bank of Brazil and B3 (company formed by BM&F Bovespa and CETIP).<\/p>\n

In the first public meeting of the group (April 2017), FEBRABAN has tested exchanging client information between Itau and Bradesco using IBM\u2019s Hyperledger technology<\/strong>. The group is expected to present additional results of its studies in June, at FEBRABAN\u2019s annual banking technology fair.<\/p>\n

\n

Regulators are supporting the current trials involving blockchain technology:<\/h4>\n

The Central Bank of Brazil<\/strong> has already conducted different tests on how the technology could potentially be applied in the Brazilian market<\/strong>.
