Luxembourg-based financial services company Banking Circle has tied up with fintech giant Ant Group to embark on a liquidity management project.

The partnership aims to explore innovations related to tokenised deposits, with a focus on enhancing the efficiency and speed of global fund settlements.

To achieve this, Banking Circle will harness its robust infrastructure in conjunction with Ant Group’s blockchain platform. This blockchain platform will play a pivotal role in facilitating cross-border payments and liquidity management more efficiently.

Beyond the advantages in liquidity management, the structure is Web 3.0 compatible and provides further opportunities for cost-saving with FX and additional currencies in the near future.
