- SWIFT, together with Ripple and Stellar is redefining global transactions in latest Integrations and upgrades.
- Recently, XRP Ledger sealed a partnership deal with Gatehub to release amplified assets to the platform according to reports.
Global transactions are still evolving with the introduction of ISO 20022 to provide an international standard for electronic message exchange between financial institutions. This is eliminating the contributing factors for the lack of interoperability between financial institutions. Ripple, in May 2020, announced its compliance with the ISO 20022 standards body together with the likes of IOTA and Stellar paving the way for SWIFT integration.
This was lauded by the business manager for Swift’s strategic platform Stephen Lindsay.
When it comes to payments, it is no different. When money is moving across borders, we rarely think about the layers of communication before the payment is executed. Over time, the formats used for payment messages in different regions have developed idiosyncrasies that require translation, creating bottlenecks that cause inefficiencies and increased costs.
Initially, there was a huge challenge with financial institutions building connections with each other. In a blog post, SWIFT admitted that interoperability has fixed the most pressing tokenization issues.
Recently, XRP Ledger announced a partnership with Gatehub to introduce amplified assets to XRPL. This implies that XRPL would now have the capability to seamlessly interact with the likes of SWIFT, Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc. This provides a real boost to Ripple and Stellar as it sets them up for retail adoption.
