The Institute for Liberty and Democracy (ILD), led by Peruvian economist Hernando de Soto, works with developing countries to implement property and business rights reforms that provide the legal tools and institutions required for citizens to participate in the formal national and global economy. ILD works toward a world in which all people have equal access to secure rights to their real property and business assets in order to pull themselves—and their countries—out of poverty.
“This important project will show that governments that transfer their property registries to a Blockchain-based system can establish a more transparent and well-recorded system that ultimately benefits the people and advances economic opportunity for all.” said Hernando de Soto, renowned economist and president of the Institute for Liberty and Democracy.
