Цель статьи — исследование тенденций, выявление областей применения, анализ рисков и преимуществ использования данной технологии в корпоративном управлении. В работе применялись методы обобщения, синтеза, сравнительного анализа подходов к определению роли блокчейна в корпоративном управлении, изучена актуальная научная литература в указанной области, а также проведен сопоставительный анализ целей корпоративного управления и основных свойств технологии. Новизной исследования является то, что автором проанализированы перспективы внедрения блокчейн-технологии в корпоративную практику с учетом распространения пандемии COVID-19. Автор предлагает следовать следующим рекомендациям по вопросу внедрения технологии блокчейн в деятельность организации: включать вопрос о целесообразности интеграции технологии блокчейн в повестку дня совета директоров, разрабатывать и утверждать на данном уровне внутренние документы, регулирующие использование технологии в организации, а также стратегию ее использования с последующей интеграцией в общую бизнес-стратегию, утверждать риск — аппетит компании в отношении использования технологии в рамках общей стратегии рискменеджмента, анализировать эффективность использования технологии и ее влияние на деятельность организации на уровне совета директоров, а также обеспечивать повышение уровня подготовки и компетенций работников по вопросам использования блокчейн. Сделан вывод, что в настоящее время активное использование блокчейн-технологии будет происходить в областях, в которых она может предложить более эффективную альтернативу существующим системам в их текущем состоянии. Полученные выводы и результаты могут быть использованы при дальнейшем развитии российской практики корпоративного управления, а также в аналитической и практической работе органов государственной власти и бизнеса.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The subject of the present paper is the perspective of blockchain technology application based on the experience of the Russian and foreign companies, ﬁnancial institutions, and public authorities. The purpose of the article is to study trends, identify areas of application, and analyze the risks and beneﬁts of blockchain technology application in corporate governance. The author used the methods of generalization, synthesis, comparative analysis of the approaches applied to determine the role played by blockchain in corporate governance, studied appropriate recent scientiﬁc publications, and also conducted the comparative analysis of the corporate governance goals and key characteristics of the above technology. The author has exhaustively analyzed the prospects of blockchain technology implementation in corporate governance taking into account the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, which forms the novelty of the present paper. The author proposes to follow the below recommendations pertaining to certain issues of implementing blockchain technology into entity’s operations: to include the issue of suitability of blockchain technology integration into the entity’s operations in the meeting of the Board of Directors’ agenda, develop and approve at the Board level in-house documents to regulate the technology application within the entity as well as the strategy of its using to be followed by its integration into the entity’s general business strategy, approve the entity’s risk-appetite to use the technology within the frameworks of the overall entity’s risk management strategy, analyze the impact it may cause on the entity’s activities at the Board level and also ensure improving the employees’ training and competencies with respect to using blockchain technology. The author concludes that nowadays blockchain technology will be most intensively used in areas where it is a more effective alternative to existing systems in their current state. The conclusions and results obtained may be used in the course of developing Russian corporate governance practice as well as in the analytical and practical work performed by the public authorities and the business community.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>корпоративное управление</kwd><kwd>цифровизация</kwd><kwd>цифровые активы</kwd><kwd>блокчейн</kwd><kwd>общее собрание акционеров</kwd><kwd>электронное голосование</kwd><kwd>смарт-контракты</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>corporate governance</kwd><kwd>digitalization</kwd><kwd>digital assets</kwd><kwd>blockchain</kwd><kwd>general meeting of shareholders</kwd><kwd>e-voting</kwd><kwd>smart contracts</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">North D.
