dc.description.abstract | Developments in communication technologies have enabled entities to benefit from new technological infrastructures with improved efficiency. In this context, blockchain, as a new, innovative communication technology, can provide a better solution that promises efficiency and improved transparency for every kind of transaction that involves value exchange including stocks, derivatives, interbank transactions, and accounting operations of entities. Today, whenever a value exchange transaction is needed between individuals or institutions, a regulatory and intermediary body is needed in order to ensure trustworthiness and transparency. Supporters of a blockchain called the “internet of values” argue that it sustains a more reliable infrastructure without any intermediary, unlike traditional systems that include regulators and intermediaries. Blockchains established by private institutions for intercompany operations give the decision-making authority of record approvals and monitoring ledgers to the system’s managers. Especially companies or institutions can benefit from these private blockchains without a need for a trust mechanism such as intermediaries. This chapter aims to exhibit the current accounting operation areas that blockchain technology impacts, s as well as the future direction of the integration between the technology and accounting. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG. | |
