DBS and Citi complete live tokenized dollar payment on SWIFT's blockchain ledger in minutes

DBS and Citi completed a live cross-border US dollar payment on a Saturday in minutes using tokenized deposits through SWIFT's blockchain-based Digital Ledger. The transaction between DBS in Singapore and Citi's New York office took place on 5 September, whilst conventional transfers can take up to two business days. SWIFT declared its blockchain ledger ready for initial use in July, with 17 banks across six continents preparing live pilots. Participants include Citi, DBS, HSBC, Standard Chartered, UBS, BNY, Wells Fargo, BNP Paribas, and MUFG. Banks issue tokenised representations of deposits on their own ledgers, whilst SWIFT's shared ledger coordinates payment commitments. Final settlement occurs through existing infrastructure. Citi has already processed live transactions with First Abu Dhabi Bank and OCBC.

Citigroup eyes China brokerage licence approval, plans to double staff to 100

Citigroup is expected to receive Chinese regulatory approval for its fully owned mainland brokerage as early as this month, Reuters reported. The US bank applied for the licence in late 2021 as part of efforts to deepen its China operations. The bank plans to expand the unit's workforce to around 100 employees by year-end, roughly double current levels, according to sources. Recruitment will cover senior revenue-generating roles and operational positions through relocations and external hiring. The brokerage will seek permission for A-share trading, underwriting, research and principal trading. It aims to leverage Citi's existing mainland corporate relationships for equity and M&A work, focusing on technology, healthcare, consumer and financial sectors. Citi declined to comment on the application.
