Digital money is getting closer and closer to common use

Digital money is getting closer and closer to common use. Many countries are testing their CBDC pilot programs. The main problem with this type of money is the issue of regulation.

During the pandemic, there has been growth in this area, with governments accelerating the digital delivery of key government services. Tax authorities are increasingly using e-filing and e-payment systems and digital technologies to improve compliance management, helping to reduce tax evasion and increase revenue mobilisation. Digital technologies also improve the efficiency and effectiveness of public finance management systems and processes, including budget preparation and execution, cash and debt management, e-procurement, financial reporting and auditing, and social program administration.

Digital forms of money are diverse and evolving rapidly. The opportunities are vast, but the challenges facing policy makers are also stark, complex and widespread. The most far-reaching implications concern the stability of the international monetary system. Digital money needs to be designed and regulated in such a way that countries reap its potential benefits, including greater financial integration and more efficient cross-border payments.

As more countries adopt new forms of digital money, the IMF has designed its policy advice to help countries and create a more stable international monetary system. Read the 2022 #IMFAnnualReport https://t.co/1oApvPc1ek pic.twitter.com/HTGpYxEzw6

Walmart’s ambitious new plans

Online shopping has increased in recent years. Around the world, online shopping was mostly associated with Amazon. There is no doubt that Amazon is a leader in this industry. For retailers, it may be a major problem, but for Amazon's competitors, they are also constantly evolving. Mainly due to the pandemic, stores such as Walmart took advantage of the situation to develop their online business. The global health crisis has also fueled Walmart's sense of urgency to better compete with Amazon.

Walmart is leveraging two key strengths to drive its e-commerce business: approximately 4,700 stores in the United States and its dominance in the grocery industry. Ninety percent of Americans live within 10 miles of a Walmart store. Walmart is using its stores as launch pads for delivery drones and drop-off points for direct deliveries to refrigerators, and will soon begin packing and shipping third-party retailers' goods from stores.

Such actions can bring Walart many benefits and even make him a leader.
