Have you heard of institutional intraday lending capabilities? Too chim; didn’t read? Here’s what it means. OCBC has become the first Singapore bank with institutional intraday lending capabilities. It means #OCBC can now lend money to companies needing short-term cash to cover unexpected expenses for just a few hours or a day. To secure the loan, the borrower will need to provide collateral, which can be tokenised. These collateral can include assets like #stocks or #bonds that are converted into digital tokens. This makes transactions nearly instant, giving the borrower fast access to cash. It’s a win-win because firstly, banks often have idle money sitting untouched daily. By lending it out, OCBC earns interest, while borrowers can cover their cash needs quickly and at a lower interest rate. If you must know, what goes behind the scene are J.P. Morgan’s Digital Financing application and #Onyx Digital Assets Platform. #blockchain Ken Lai Scott Lucas Tan May Ling

This article, written by Quant, is a great reminder that now is the time to exploit innovation opportunities in payments. As the financial landscape continues to evolve, programmable payment capabilities are emerging as a game-changer. With the potential to revolutionize transaction processes, now is the perfect time for banks and financial services to seize innovation opportunities. Gilbert Verdian says, “By embedding logic into money, banks can automate processes, make money intelligent and create space for new types of use cases.” “Time is running out, there is a risk that banks may lose customers to new entrants if they don’t innovate now." We couldn't agree more 👍 #paymentsinnovation #programmability #opportunities #makeithappen

Banks To Join SWIFT Digital Asset Trials In 2025 Banks in North America, Europe and Asia are preparing to participate in trials involving digital assets by the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT). SWIFT announced on Oct. 3 that it will begin digital asset trials on its network in 2025. The trials will involve experiments with transactions that include multiple digital currencies and assets. The trials aim to explore how the banking network can provide financial institutions with unified access to “multiple digital asset classes and currencies.” “Initial use cases will focus on payments, foreign exchange, securities and trade to enable multi-ledger delivery-versus-payment and payment-versus-payment transactions,” the announcement said. #banking #swift #newera #digitalassets #tradfi #payment #fx source : cointelegraph

Swiss bank UBS (UBSG.S), opens new tab said on Thursday it had successfully piloted a blockchain-based payment system it has developed to improve efficiency of cross-border transactions known as UBS Digital Cash. In the pilot, transactions were carried out with multinational clients and banks, including domestic transactions in Switzerland and cross-border payments in U.S. dollars, Swiss francs, euros and Chinese yuan, UBS said in a statement. Andy Kollegger, head UBS Institutional & Multinational Banking, described blockchain-based payment solutions for cross-border payments as a strategic focus for UBS. "UBS Digital Cash going forward aims to enable our clients to make cross-border payments in a much more efficient and transparent way," Kollegger said. The pilot scheme included the transfer of liquidity between various UBS companies. UBS said it plans to expand and develop UBS Digital Cash in further steps. The system should allow firms to manage intraday-liquidity and adjust liquidity buffers on their accounts more easily due to increased visibility of their cash positions, UBS said. According to the bank, UBS Digital Cash uses a private blockchain network to which only permissioned clients have access. Settlement occurs via smart contracts that can automatically execute payments once certain conditions are met. #UBSDigitalCash #swissbank #digitalpayment
