Standard Chartered has launched institutional custody services for Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin, with plans to expand its use as trading collateral.
The UK-based multinational bank announced Monday it rolled out RLUSD support on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) through its Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) branch, giving eligible institutional clients access to its digital asset custody infrastructure.
Standard Chartered plans to extend its collateral-mirroring model to LMAX Group, an institutional trading company, allowing clients to use RLUSD as trading collateral while keeping the tokens in the bank’s custody.
