Fnality International has launched the first phase of its Sterling Fnality Payment System (£FnPS), a distributed ledger technology (DLT)-based wholesale payment system. The system enables banks to transfer British pounds by combining the benefits of blockchain technology with central bank-issued currency. The £FnPS is a collaborative effort between Fnality, UK regulators, and initial bank participants, including Lloyds Banking Group, Banco Santander, and UBS. It operates through an account held by £FnPS at the Bank of England, connecting the network to the UK’s core payments infrastructure.

Fnality aims to revolutionize digital transaction models in wholesale finance and asset tokenization. The CEO of Fnality International, Rhomaios Ram, expressed his excitement about the successful launch, highlighting the global potential of the company’s DLT-based payment systems. With a committed group of participant banks and Financial Market Infrastructures ready for onboarding, Fnality is on track to realize its vision of a seamless global liquidity management ecosystem.

In a recent funding round, Fnality International raised £77.7 million ($96.4 million) with the participation of financial companies such as Goldman Sachs, BNP Paribas, DTCC, Euroclear, Nomura, and WisdomTree. This funding reflects the increasing interest of the financial sector in blockchain solutions that bridge the gap between traditional and decentralized finance.

Looking ahead, governments worldwide are embracing tokenization for the public good. Tokenization offers improved liquidity, mass adoption, and global accessibility while mitigating cryptocurrency volatility.
