Canadian big banks warming to blockchain

This month saw several major Canadian banking institutions announce initiatives or updates to their current blockchain projects, signalling further institutional adoption and support. These projects range from launching exchanges, all the way to the introduction of experimental pilot programs. Here’s what you need to know.

Summary: Canada once led the world in blockchain asset integration. However, it has fallen behind other nations over the last couple of years. Thankfully, new initiatives seem to be spurring innovation in the country’s blockchain sector.

Canada’s Big 6 Banks and Their Influence on Blockchain Adoption

The Canadian banking sector differs from the US in many ways. For one, there are only a handful of major banking institutions operating within the country. This group is known as the “Big 6.” Specifically, these banks include the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC), Bank of Nova Scotia (Scotiabank),  National Bank of Canada, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC), Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD), and the Bank of Montreal (BMO). These organizations control over 90% of the nation’s banking services and assets.
