The consultancy says it will use the additions to its core team of blockchain experts to provide a range of consulting and technology services including: feasibility studies, business case assessments, operating model design, advisory services on systems architecture and full-scale systems integration.

Thierry Delaporte, CEO of Capgemini’s financial services strategic business unit says: "Capgemini is collaborating with fintechs to develop innovative blockchain solutions on micro payments, syndicate loans, asset management and claims handling which Capgemini will implement as a preferred systems integrator.”

Earlier this year, PwC announced plans to build a 40-strong team of blockchain professionals by the end of the year to deal with increasing demand from banks for specialist expertise.
