Building The Market Infrastructure Of Tomorrow: CREST, RTGS And The Bank Of England, 20 Years On - Speech Given By Andrew Hauser, Executive Director For Banking, Payments And Financial Resilience, At The CREST Twentieth Anniversary Event In London.

In this speech, Andrew explores the history of our CREST payments system, which now processes around a quarter of a trillion pounds worth of payments every day. He also reflects on the lessons learned when we built CREST 20 years ago, how we have applied those lessons to our current strategic review of our real-time gross settlement (RTGS) system, and what lies ahead for securities market infrastructure.
