The potential of the blockchain for coordinated border management in developing countries
Mohamed Anouche, Younes Boumaaz · 2020
Globalization 4.0 offers new scenarios for the world economy, fueled by advanced technologies and the movement of ideas, people and goods. Faced with this situation of dynamic disruptions, border agencies have new opportunities to adapt their policies and business processes for secure, efficient, and scalable border management. Therefore, blockchain technology could help increase supply chain efficiency by providing a set of solutions that could offer new opportunities for the different actors at the border (information exchange, inter-agency cooperation, revenue collection, etc.). Because of the specificity of their issues and challenges, developing countries can exploit the potential offered by blockchain technology for better management of the international trade environment.
