BlackRock released a research briefing titled "The Future of Finance" on its official website. The report pointed out that regulatory changes, changes in financial architecture, the end of zero interest rates and technological innovation are changing the deposit and credit markets and subverting business models. U.S. banks can no longer rely on deposits as a cheap source of funding, and they will take control of lending, so businesses may turn to capital markets, private lenders and other sources of credit. The report argues that these shifts benefit savers, diversify borrowers' financing, create a more stable system and open up potential investment opportunities. The evolution of the financial system will further accelerate with innovation from banks and other financial institutions, regulatory developments, and technological developments around payments, digital currencies, asset tokenization, and artificial intelligence.
