New Digital Currency To Be Created For Montenegro Via Ripple Partnership

Dr. Dritan Abazovi, who serves as the Prime Minister of Montenegro since 28th April, 2022, recently talked about a meeting he had with two high ranking Ripple executives.

Small countries like Montenegro generally lack the most basic necessities, including things like physical and human capital, a problem that is becoming more acute as technology advances. Their governments usually struggle to support innovation so policymakers must consider everything which affects the accumulation of all types of capital in order to design, implement, and coordinate viable policies.

On January 18th, 2023, reports started surfacing about the aforementioned meeting which involved Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse and Ripple VP for Central Bank Engagements and CBDCs, James Wallis. The discussion focused on the creation of a payment infrastructure which could boost financial accessibility and inclusion.

The local government is therefore open to new value and investment categories, a mindset which culminated in the launch of a pilot project with Ripple and the Central Bank to create the very first digital currency or stablecoin for the country.
