One of the major elements of the change for banks is that they now need to assess the lifetime loss expectation rather than just the previous one-year view.

شهد العالم في السنوات القليل ً ة الماضية تطوًر ً ا هائًلا في مجالي التكنولوجيا ّر بشكل كبير على مختلف مجالات الحياة. وأصبح من الضروري والمعلومات، ما أّث على الأفراد والسلطات الرقابية مواكبة هذا التقدم التكنولوجي، الذي غّّير العديد من المفاهيم والقواعد الأساسية المرتبطة بالعمليات المالية بوجه عام، والمصرفية بشكل خاص. ومن أبرز آثار هذا التطور ظهور العملات الافتراضية، وأشهرها عملة البيتكوين )Bitcoin)، التي ُُتعد »افتراضية« ألنها ال تملك وجو ًًدا مادًًيا، كما يتم إصدارها دون الرجوع إلى سلطة مركزية مثل البنوك المركزية. وتهدف هذه العملات إلى تمكين مستخدميها من سداد التزاماتهم إلكترونًًيا، وتحويل الأموال ألي مكان في العالم دون الحاجة إلى وسيط، ودون أن تخضع هذه التحويلات لرقابة أي جهة. ورغم ما توفره هذه العملات من مزايا، مثل إمكانية نقلها في أي وقت وبخصوصية تامة، ودون رسوم تحويل مرتفعة أو فروق أسعار صرف، فإنها تشكل تحدًًيا كبيًًرا للسلطات الرقابية حول العالم، نظًًرا إلمكانية استغلالها من قبل العناصر الإجرامية إلخفاء الأموال بعي ًًدا عن أعين الرقابة. لذا، تهدف ورشة العمل إلى مناقشة المفاهيم المتعلقة بالتعاملات المالية باستخدام العملات الافتراضية، خصو ًًصا البيتكوين، والمخاطر المرتبطة بتداولها، خاصة ما يتعلق بتمويل الإرهاب وغسل الأموال، إلى جانب استعراض الطرق الممكنة لتعقب تلك التعاملات.
