Payments Professor’s Stablecoin Readiness Guide

Electronic Format


Publisher: Payments Professor
Year: 2026

Where do stablecoins and smart contracts actually make sense for a bank or credit union? This guide helps financial institutions answer that question through payment operations, risk, governance, and control, not hype.

Compare stablecoins with existing payment rails, identify operational signals that may warrant a closer look, and evaluate where smart contracts could improve the execution of clearly defined rules. The guide includes a readiness checklist, decision flowchart, real-world examples, risk framework, and tiered approach to assessing potential activities.

Practical tools help turn the analysis into documented decisions: a decision memo, signal identification worksheet, readiness scorecard, examiner talking points, and board summary template.

Written for leaders and teams in payments, operations, treasury, risk, compliance, and audit, this guide supports a decision to explore, pilot, defer, or decline, with a clear rationale for whichever path your institution chooses.
