UK economy could gain £33bn from digital finance by 2035

UK economy could gain £33bn from digital finance by 2035

A new report by Barclays and PwC suggests that 'tokenisation', a way of digitising assets like bonds, could add up to £33 billion to the UK's annual economic output by 2035. Tokenisation would come from making financial services more efficient and boosting investment across the wider economy. The report recommends the UK focuses on areas like corporate bonds and private markets, and acts as a trusted link between international digital finance systems.
