In this new Accenture document we discuss how blockchain technology can deliver real value to a financial service’s “Procure-to-Pay” process. For more information, see Philippe Guyonnet’s blog post: http://bit.ly/2gQs8nh
With the basics of blockchain cleared, we will move on to the Trade Finance Ecosystem. Our learning how the ecosystem will reveal current trade finance issues such as regulatory burden, low customer experience, and so on. So, that you can understand the pain point of trade finance, we will list all the trade finance issues.
Our next step would be to understand how blockchain can be used in trade finance. There is a step-by-step explanation of how blockchain can impact trade finance and make it more efficient and effective.
There are definite advantages of using blockchain in trade finance. These advantages include transparency, real-time previewing and reviewing, no double spending, smart contract execution, regulations, and Proof-of-Ownership.
We will also go through some exciting blockchain trade finance use-cases. We will cover Letter of Credit(LC) and Bill of Laiding(BoL)
Next, our focus would be on the leading trade finance blockchain consortia. Many consortia are working towards making trade finance evolve through the current limitations. This includes We.Trade, Komgo, Voltron, Macro Polo, Batavia, and HKTP.
To ensure that you learn about the whole trade finance ecosystem, we will also cover the blockchain frameworks that are used in trade finance. Quorum Blockchain and R3 Corda are two frameworks that are actively used in trade finance.
In the last few slides, our focus will be on the real world companies that are utilizing blockchain for trade finance. Swift, Kbank, Scotiabank, Barclays, SEB, etc. are examples of companies or organization that are utilizing blockchain for trade finance.
However, the challenge is to implement blockchain. But, do not worry as we ill go through a simple slide where we will discuss the steps that are required to implement blockchain. It is a five-step process which starts with identifying use-case.

Innovation in logistics and supply chain management blockchainsAinsley Brown
In the simplest of terms, blockchain is just a new form of decentralized database. But what is its connection to logistics and supply chain management? The very function of blockchain technology tells the story.
It's a shared ledger for recording the history of transactions - that cannot be altered. Blockchains are ledgers (like Excel spreadsheets), but they accept inputs from lots of different parties. The ledger can only be changed when there is a consensus among the group. That makes them more secure, and it means there's no need for a central authority to approve transactions.
You can think of blockchain as the “internet of value.” It’s a real-time ledger of anything that can be recorded (financial transactions, contracts, physical assets, supply chain info, etc.) but there is no one person or organization in charge of the entire chain. In fact, it’s open and everyone in the chain can see the detail of each record—what’s known as a block.
Since blockchains can be effectively tracked through all processes, companies using blockchain technology will be able to more readily produce detailed information about a product’s lifecycle, including supplier information, manufacturing details and logistics information.
An introduction session in the "Blockchain: Cryptocurrencies and other Business Applications" course that I've just finished delivering to the School of Business of Hong Kong Baptist University.
Blockchain technology has the potential to improve today's complex global supply chains by providing a distributed ledger that allows all parties to securely track shipments and transactions without error. This can reduce costs, increase transparency, and help address issues like fraud. Several companies are already testing blockchain applications to digitally track shipments of goods, verify product authenticity, and automate payments through smart contracts across supply chains. Widespread adoption may depend on establishing standards, addressing regulatory concerns, and resolving technical challenges regarding scalability and resilience.

Overview of blockchain technology and architectureEY
The adoption of blockchain technology continues to accelerate across a wide array of industries, yet many of our clients are confused about how to deploy these solutions within their environment. EY has developed a blockchain stack that fits within the existing enterprise infrastructure, project and system development life cycle approaches that are customized to the new technology, and development frameworks to streamline our deployment.
The document discusses supply chain management (SCM) and related concepts. It defines SCM and integrated SCM, noting that three key items - materials, products, and information - flow between supply chain participants. SCM aims to efficiently integrate suppliers, factories, warehouses, and stores to deliver the right products to the right locations at the right time while minimizing costs.
Blockchain has the potential to transform the supply chain and disrupt the way goods are produced, marketed, purchases and consumed. Learn how blockchain can address multiple retail and supply chain challenges, including counterfeit prevention; stolen merchandise recovery; fraudulent transactions; insurance and theft protection; and intellectual property and rights management.
The use of blockchain technology is being adopted by more and more industries.
Thus, many companies (many of them known) are already using it in order to offer greater transparency and security to their customers, as well as to have greater control over the supply chain.
The document discusses Hyperledger Fabric, a blockchain framework. It provides an overview of why blockchain is needed to solve reconciliation issues in multi-party environments. It then summarizes key aspects of Hyperledger Fabric such as its architecture, components, and how transactions flow through the network.
Blockchain has potential applications in peer-to-peer energy trading. It allows direct transactions between energy producers and consumers without intermediaries. Two examples are described. The first is direct trading where prosumers announce energy availability on the blockchain network and trades are verified. The second uses a credit-based system where users submit purchase bids and the distribution system operator matches buyers and sellers. Energy companies globally are piloting various uses like P2P trading and smart appliances. Blockchain facilitates energy transition by empowering users but faces challenges like immature standards, regulation uncertainty, and high data storage needs.
How to Apply Blockchain to Supply-Chain ManagementFluence.sh
Blockchain can be applied to supply chain management to increase transparency and efficiency. It allows all participants in the supply chain to access a shared ledger with real-time information. This reduces errors, delays, and fraud while improving management and trust between consumers and suppliers. Companies should start by implementing blockchain on weak points in the supply chain and collaborating with other members before expanding the solution. The full benefits are realized when the entire supply chain is integrated on the blockchain platform.
Blockchain: all assets digitized and registered to blockchains; instantaneously transactable on a global basis
Blockchain Supply Chain: all assets exist in digital inventories, tradeable (pledgeable, financeable) and more importantly, findable, in the global digital network economy
Blockchain in Supply Chain Management By Prashant Prashant Pandey
A blockchain is a distributed, digital ledger. The ledger records transactions in a series of blocks. It exists in multiple copies spread over multiple computers, which are also called nodes. The ledger is secure because each new block of transactions is linked back to previous blocks in a way that makes tampering practically impossible Supply chain management (SCM) is the active management of supply chain activities to maximize customer value and achieve a sustainable competitive advantage

All about Blockchain Technology and it's applications in Finance functionvinodavg
Blockchain Technology is a vast, distributed ledger, operating on millions of devices, recording anything, with identical copies maintained on each of the network computers. When a new transaction or an edit to an existing transaction comes in, generally a majority of the nodes within a blockchain network must execute some algorithms and essentially evaluate and verify the history of the transaction that is proposed and come to a consensus that the history and signature is valid, then the new transaction is accepted into the ledger. If a majority of nodes do not concede to the addition or modification of the ledger entry, then it is denied and not added to the chain. All the members can review previous entries and record new transactions. These are then grouped into ‘blocks’, which then form part of a ‘chain’, thus leading to a ‘blockchain

Using blockchain to get ahead of the game: Creating trust and driving operati...Accenture Insurance
The rise of blockchain promises to bring disruption to commercial insurance by fundamentally reshaping principles and processes that have governed the industry since the 17th century. Blockchain offers a more efficient alternative to the processes the insurance industry developed as an answer to the absence of mutual trust between affected parties and a lack of end-to-end transaction transparency.
In this report we address how blockchain can create trust and drive operational excellence, and we assess its wider implications for commercial insurance brokers.
Blockchain technology has the potential to transform the commercial insurance broking industry by creating provable trust between parties and driving operational excellence. By implementing blockchain-enabled smart contracts, brokers can streamline back-office processes, reduce costs, speed up transactions and settlements, and eliminate the need for reconciliation between different systems. This allows brokers to shift focus from administrative tasks to more value-added activities. Blockchain provides transparency, security, and automation that can replace the traditional model of trust through handshakes and relationships.

The document also profiles several companies that have worked with Microsoft to apply these technologies to problems in their industries.
Everis is a multinational consulting firm that works with clients to transform their vision and business through blockchain technology. Blockchain allows for disintermediation and trustless transactions without centralized intermediaries. It provides benefits like improved security, immutability, and programmable smart contracts. For supply chain management, blockchain enables real-time visibility, reduces errors and fraud, and allows for automated processes through smart contracts. One example is using a private blockchain like Hyperledger to securely track shipments between a factory, driver and retail destination with timestamps and verifications at each step.
Blockchain technology offers opportunities to streamline the audit process. With blockchain, auditors could have near real-time access to consistent financial data through read-only nodes. This would eliminate manual data extraction and allow auditors to focus on riskier transactions. Documentation like contracts could be securely stored on blockchain. While automation may increase, auditors still need to apply judgment and test internal controls over blockchain data integrity. However, challenges include assessing controls over irreversible transactions, responding to attacks without a central authority, and accessing data if private keys are lost.

2. Blockchain as a technology and concept continues to be hyped in the financial
services industry. Experimental approaches and innovations like Accenture’s
redactable blockchain are emerging and are of great interest and appeal to the
financial sector. As a disruptive technology platform, blockchain is impactful
with the potential to redefine the operations and economics of the financial
services industry.
Its purpose is to deliver transparency,
security and efficiency in transactions.
In our view, blockchain technology’s
strengths are well-demonstrated in
supporting objective, distributed, evenly-
balanced control in situations where this
is difficult to secure, such as international
payments. The technology also provides
transparency in vital areas like anti-money
laundering (AML) and can add efficiency,
trust and reach to global financial markets
where current processes are challenged
in their ability to handle the volume
and velocity of data that needs to be
assessed in day-to-day operations.
Procure-to-Pay (PTP) is the multi-step
process connecting a client with one
or more service/product providers.
Among other activities, it allows for
the identification and authentication of
stakeholders, budgeting, service provision,
invoicing and payment settlement. Among
the current challenges faced by PTP
programs are generating sustainable cost
reductions through disintermediation,
efficiency improvement, fraud control
and transparency enhancement.
Blockchain technology can disrupt
PTP processes and more importantly
provide huge operational benefits in
terms of speed, greater security and
decreased workload by facilitating the
exchange of information. The following
outlines how blockchain technology
can bring value to key PTP processes.
Front-end system
A front-end interface is recommended to
authorize vendors, define new catalogs,
place purchase orders or sign contracts.
This application can be an add-on to the
blockchain or could be leveraged through
existing procurement systems, if vendors
decide to adopt this technology.
Improved validation and
authentication
These would benefit from blockchain
technology. A blockchain would support
swift distribution of authentication
rights along the PTP chain, thereby
helping to prevent fraud and improve
security across the PTP process.
Accelerated purchase order
management
Purchase order and good receipt data
would be exchanged on the blockchain at
an accelerated pace when compared to
current performance levels. As well, the
blockchain could help identify the nearest
and most cost effective vendor within the
network. This would help decrease lead
time and workload associated with vendor
searches, the processing of purchase
orders and goods/services receipts.
Reshaped invoice processing
Invoice scanning would no longer be
required thanks to shared access to the
database, with the exchange of invoices
supported by the blockchain. This would
also help render the reconciliation process
far less cumbersome as all authorized
parties could review the same transaction,
eliminating the need for reconciliations.
Blockchain hosted transactions would
feed into the company’s general ledger
for general accounting and financial
reporting purposes.
Accelerated settlements
These would be accelerated as reconciliations
and vendor/end user enquiries would not be
required due to complete transparency and
real-time access to shared database. This
could potentially disrupt in a positive sense
business practices such as the standard
D+30 days settlement deadline.
Streamlined enquiries
management
Blockchain’s greater transparency would
diminish the need for enquiries and process
status follow-ups, thus streamlining current
enquiry management and control processes.
Reduced money laundering risk
By permanently retaining historical payment
information, suspicious transactions can be
more easily identified.
Greater trust among stakeholders
Blockchain technology would help increase
trust among clients and vendors through
shared public IDs, simple and fair referral
mechanisms and ratings/scores assigned to
all market players based on the quality of
the goods, reliability in delivery and timely
payment of invoices. The accumulated and
stored history of transactions would also
help build trust and transparency.
Strong audit trail
As all parties are registered in the
ledger, transactions are stored and a
tamper‑proof audit trail is maintained.
This type of end-to-end visibility into
procurement is a well-established practice
in the tracking of physical goods.
Greater security of transactions
This can be attained through cloud-based
contract repository and an integrated
e-sign feature that verifies signer identity
and authorization.

Use of digital age
cryptocurrencies
Blockchain technology allows firms to use
this digital-based medium of exchange
which is based on financial institution
generated currency. It also offers users
instantaneous transactions, near real‑time
logging and audit capabilities, thus providing
borderless transfer of ownership.
Speed of execution
Blockchain technology provides a
secured transaction ledger database,
shared between vendors and client for
additional efficiency gains. The database
is immediately updated to reflect any new
transaction, thus accelerating the consent
and validation of work orders and invoices.
Before applying blockchain to a PTP
business, there are a few decisions
and actions that should be taken.
• A business case for adopting the PTP
blockchain should be performed. It should
encompass all pre-existing procurement
assets such as PTP cloud, enterprise
resource planning, business process
outsourcing (BPO) and people deployed
to the PTP. It should also balance the
benefits of adopting blockchain with
the cost of integrating this technology
to existing systems such as validation
workflows, accounting system and
the cost to address cyber security.
• Adoption of a private or a public
blockchain? A public blockchain would
help reduce complexity and entry costs
but would require a new certification
process for all parties. Challenges to
doing so include the fact that there are
no global authorities entitled to perform
this certification, and such actions
might be considered infringements on
transnational free trade agreements.
As for a private blockchain, it could
help increase security issues as well as
disadvantaging the weaker participant(s)
in the transaction (e.g. a vendor would
have to handle multiple private
blockchains).
As in all its current blockchain
engagements, Accenture can work
with clients from ideation to design
and through the prototyping steps in
order to demonstrate blockchain’s real
world benefits in a PTP application.
