The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) recently made an announcement for its two-year research project. Owing to Treasurer Josh Frydenberg's "payments and crypto reform plan," the RBA issued a report investigating DLT tech and wholesale <a href="https://www.cryptoknowmics.com/news/tanzanian-central-bank-planning-to-launch-its-own-cbdc/">CBDC</a> allotment.
<h2>CBDC Research Shows Major Benefits </h2>
The project highlighted the benefits of digitizing and autotomizing the manual. It even showcased the advantage of paper-based banking processes via distributed ledger technology (DLT). The report manifested a conclusion of the two-year project called "Project Atom" organized in <a href="https://www.thebharatexpressnews.com/reserve-bank-of-australias-cbdc-project-atom-research-reveals-many-benefits/">partnership</a> with the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA), National Australia Bank (NAB), Perpetual, and ConsenSys. Secondary data on behalf of King &amp; Wood Mallesons was also into this partnership.

Michele Bullock - RBA's assistant chancellor commented on Project Atom. He said, "The project authorized the ability for a wholesale CBDC and asset tokenization to boost efficiency, mitigate risk &amp; alter wholesale financial market transactions."

A wholesale CBDC is a digital currency issued by the central bank. Payment, interbank transfers, and transactions between financial institutions are its primary functions.

On Dec. 8, 2021, CBDC's final research was published. On that day, Treasurer and Deputy Liberal chief Josh Frydenberg revealed an aspiring "payments and crypto reform plan" - new tech for financial activities &amp; crypto regulation in Australia.

The government designated, "We're in approval of at least six crypto reform proposals put forward by a Senate Committee. Also, we're investigating others."
<h2>Wholesale Syndicated Loan Market</h2>
A proof-of-concept (POC) was included in the project. POC's main purpose is to ensure a "tokenized form of CBDC" that could be used in a digitized wholesale syndicated loan market. The testing was carried on an Ethereum-based distributed ledger technology (DLT) platform. The report stated DLT technology-funded wholesale could remarkably enhance efficiency and reduce operational risk. This is possible as DTC technology acts as a substitution for highly manual and paper-based processes and servicing of data, transactions, loan payments, and settlements.
