The Federal Reserve on Thursday released its long-awaited exploration of a digital dollar but took no position on the issuance of a central bank digital currency.

One primary difference between the Fed's dollar and other digital transactions is that current digital money is a liability of commercial banks, whereas the CBDC would be a Fed liability. Among other things, that would mean the Fed wouldn't pay interest on money stored with it, though because it is riskless some depositors may prefer to keep their money with the central bank.

The paper released Thursday notes that the Fed's "initial analysis suggests that a potential U.S. CBDC, if one were created, would best serve the needs of the United States by being privacy-protected, intermediated, widely transferable, and identity-verified."

Some of the most noted benefits are the speed of a Fed-controlled system in the case of, say, a need such as the beginning of the Covid pandemic to get stimulus payments to people quickly. Providing financial services to the unbanked also has been cited as an asset.

However, the Fed already is in the midst of developing what it touts as a "round-the-clock payment and settlement service" called Fed Now that is expected to come online in 2023.

There have been suggestions that China's lead in the space ultimately could threaten the U.S. dollar hegemony as the world's reserve currency.

Fed releases long-awaited study on a digital dollar but doesn't take a position yet on creating one

The Fed released its exploration of a digital dollar, exploring the pros and cons of the much-debated issue and soliciting public comment.

The FedNow Service is a new instant payment service that the Federal Reserve Banks are developing to enable financial institutions of every size, and in every community across the U.S., to provide safe and efficient instant payment services in real time, around the clock, every day of the year.

Implementing the FedNow Service in an efficient and safe manner remains a high priority for the Federal Reserve. The FedNow Service will launch in 2023 and will be deployed in phases so that the initial service can be launched expeditiously with additional features and enhancements released in stages after the initial launch. This phased approach will allow for adjustments and improvements in response to industry needs or changes in technology.

Il drawdown dell'S&P500 è superiore alla mediana storica.

Another way to look at the current slide is through a drawdown lens. On that basis, the current retreat is a moderate -6.5% (as of Jan. 20). History suggests that degree of decline is noise. Indeed, a -6.5% peak-to-trough retreat for the S&P 500 is common terrain: since 1960, the median drawdown is only slightly milder at -6.1%.
