Information Rules: Smart Ledger Architectures And Distributed Permissions
Webinar

Markets depend upon permissions, or the action(s) of officially allowing someone to do a particular thing: consent or authorisation.

Since the time of the first markets, before the beginning of recorded history, the complexity of such permissions has multiplied. This increase in complexity has accelerated in recent decades, as information technologies have increased globalisation and de-materialisation of markets. In order to effectively manage such permissions in contemporary markets, we believe that a new framework for defining and managing distributed permissions is needed; what one might call a species of “information rules”.

This webinar will consider how Smart Ledgers could implement such a permissions framework, by exploring “out of the box” approaches, rather than recommending an evolution of current frameworks and technology. It will look at a framework for analysing market permissions (as well as the related concepts of obligations and prohibitions), aiming to show that there is a need for robust thinking about how permissions should work in information-driven markets. Finally, it will consider possible approaches to a permission framework for such markets and propose a way forward, as well as exploring how Smart Ledgers could prove to be an important solution.

We hope that you will be able to dial in.
