"PricewaterhouseCoppers (PwC) recently recently hosted a discussion for the Asset and Wealth Management (AWM) sector to specifically look at the application and potential of distributed ledger technology on their business. “From our work across the financial services sector, it is clear to us that Blockchain applications have the potential to transform the industry,” said Steve Webb, Partner at PwC & UK lead for Blockchain. “Blockchain is not just hype – there is real interest in this topic.”
