| - | Before an answer can be provided about paying interest on CBDC, it is essential to clearly state the purpose and goals of the CBDC. Based upon the information in the White Paper, it is not clear if the CBDC should be a replacement for Physical Money, a replacement for bank accounts, or a hybrid combination of the two. Currently, there is no interest paid on cash. In fact, that is a motivation for not hoarding cash, but to put it into an account. The interest paid on the account, depends on the kind of account (i.e., checking, savings, certificate of deposit, money market, etc.). | + | Before an answer can be provided about paying interest on CBDC, it is essential to clearly state the purpose and goals of the CBDC.

| - | Determining if a CBDC should pay interest is highly dependent upon the overall goals and purpose of the CBDC which can only be determined by the Federal Reserve. In this review, the requirements identified by [[https://www.omg.org/ | Object Management Group ]] from the [[https://www.federalreserve.gov/publications/files/money-and-payments-20220120.pdf | White Paper]] and summarized in the [[cbdc:private:cbdc_omg:04_doc:12_summary:start| White Paper Analysis]] are used as the basis for this analysis. From the requirements, it appears that there are two main sets of requirements when it comes to determining potential interest payments. Each of the sets is dependent on how the CBDC is to be modeled: | ||
| - | |||
| - | * **Cash Model** - these are requirements with CBDC characteristics most closely aligned with a simple cash model | ||
| - | * **Account Model** - these are requirements with CBDC characteristics most closely aligned with the account model (i.e, savings, checking, investment, direct pay, credit, debit cards, etc.) | ||
| - | |||
| - | It is only through System Engineering including a requirements analysis that a model selection can be made. It may also be determined that the CBDC could actually represent two different things that need to be developed independently but in parallel. | ||
| - | Regardless of which model (Cash or Account) is used for the CBDC, the [[https://www.omg.org/ | Object Management Group ]] recommends that the Federal Reserve use a Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and Unified Architecture Framework (UAF) approach for future CBDC efforts. The CBDC is a complex issue that, once released, could have a life expectancy of many, many years. Only through extensive Systems Analysis, Engineering, Design will CBDC have the stability it needs to instill confidence in the public. | ||
