Digital money is moving from concept to application. As organisations explore new ways to move value, improve cross-border payments and enable more efficient settlement, stablecoins have emerged as one of the most closely watched developments in digital finance. Their potential to support faster, more efficient and programmable transactions is driving growing interest across the financial ecosystem. We explore what stablecoins are, and how they work, along with other stablecoin fundamentals: https://lnkd.in/eeWNX8us Understanding these building blocks is an important first step for corporates and financial institutions navigating an evolving payments landscape. #DigitalAssets #Stablecoins

RMB internationalisation is increasingly becoming a commercial story. Across our network, we are seeing growing demand from corporates and financial institutions looking to use RMB beyond settlement, including for financing, liquidity management, risk management and investment activities. As adoption continues to deepen, the opportunity increasingly lies in how businesses can make better use of the ecosystem that already exists and translate RMB exposure into broader strategic advantage. At Standard Chartered, we have built a strong RMB franchise over many years. Today, we are focused on helping clients unlock these opportunities and navigate the next phase of RMB internationalisation. In this interview with South China Morning Post SCMP, Jerry Zhang shares her perspective on the trends we are seeing and where the next opportunities may emerge.

The RMB market is maturing and collateral usability is one of the clearest signs. As Chinese government bonds become more widely accepted as collateral, the implications run deeper than access. When RMB assets can be posted for margin and mobilised across funding and liquidity frameworks, they start to earn their place on the balance sheet - improving funding flexibility, strengthening liquidity management and making RMB exposures more balance-sheet efficient. For Financial Institutions, the question shifts from whether to hold RMB assets to how effectively they can be put to work. Watch how that shift is playing out, then explore our RMB internationalisation solutions: https://lnkd.in/e_JM5Aa5 #RMBInternationalisation #FinancialInstitutions #Renminbi
