BNP Paribas has become the newest participant in the Sterling Fnality Payment System (拢FnPS).
This was immediately followed by the successful completion of an on-chain interest rate swap payment between BNP Paribas and Lloyds on the 拢FnPS.

These milestones are not just operational achievements; they represent progress toward a global financial system where funds move seamlessly, securely and in real time.
鈥淔nality鈥檚 collaboration with BNP Paribas is another meaningful step toward realising a more connected and efficient future for capital markets.鈥�
