Fnality International Secures £77 Million in Series B Funding for DLT-Based Wholesale Payments
Fnality International, a London, UK-based provider of DLT-based wholesale payment systems, has raised £77 million in Series B funding led by Goldman Sachs and BNP Paribas
The round also saw participation from DTCC, Euroclear, Nomura, WisdomTree, and several other investors
Fnality plans to use the funds to continue developing its global liquidity management ecosystem, which empowers new digital payment models for both wholesale financial markets and emerging tokenized asset markets
Fnality's DLT-based payment systems are designed to enable real-time, bankruptcy-remote settlements backed by central bank money
The company has already demonstrated several proof-of-concept applications for its technology, including real-time settlement of tokenized securities, real-time cross-border FX swaps, and real-time repo transactions
The new funding brings Fnality's total capital raised to £132.7 million, and the company is preparing to launch its initial Sterling Fnality Payment System (£FnPS) operations in 2023, subject to regulatory approval.
