Daniel Robles, Co-Founder of Integrated Engineering Blockchain Consortium participates in Risk Roundup to discuss Blockchain-based Risk Transfer.
Blockchain Based Risk Transfer
The demand for transparency is increasing across nations: its governments, industries, organization, and academia (NGIOA) as the current centralized systems do not power transparency and are proving ineffective. Over the years, risk management has lost its meaning and way. Despite numerous efforts from across nations, how we manage risks today, remains largely basic, difficult to verify, and futile.
This is due to many reasons as who identifies risks to who evaluates risks, who transfers risks to how risks are transferred, who manages risks to for whom the risks are managed plays a very important role in the global risk ecosystem.
When the risks from cyberspace, geospace, and space (CGS) add to the complexity of the risk ecosystem, who can be trusted to manage all data about each and every risk from CGS and all its interconnections? The truth is that as of now, no single individual or entity across NGIOA can be trusted to identify, evaluate, manage or govern the growing complex interconnected and interdependent risks from CGS.
This is a cause of great concern. In the global CGS risk ecosystem, relying on any individual, or even an entity would create an inherent bias and weakness in the much-needed neutrality and transparency, risk management demands. This is mainly because anyone involved in the risk management or governance would ultimately care for only its own bottom line or its interests and affiliates’ bottom line. This could lead to selective disclosure of risks or, worse, even extortion.
So, what can be done? Who can fill the role? It seems blockchain promises us a whole new approach and way of managing risks using a global peer-to-peer network that provides an open platform that can deliver neutrality, reliability, integrity, transparency, and security in the way we manage risks.
This changes everything. Blockchain technology brings a promise of potential to manage not only independent but also interconnected and interdependent cyberspace, geospace and space risks facing individuals and entities across nations: its government, industries, organizations, and academia. Now is the time to talk about blockchain-based risk transfer!
