Khalid Ahmed Al-Ansari and Ahmet Faruk Aysan

Chapter 14 in Islamic Finance in the Digital Age, 2024, pp 250-281 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This chapter explains Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) types, design format, advantages, impact, privacy considerations, and examples of launched CBDCs. Furthermore, it illustrates Internet of Things (IoT) technology implementation in financial institutions and addresses the security weakness of combining IoT with blockchain (BIoT) which can eliminate this deficiency. The study concludes with recommendations, including evaluating and using a stablecoin for payment and integrating Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) and BIoT in daily operations to boost productivity and enhance security within Islamic finance institutions.
