Standard Chartered Processes Real Time Remittance Payments to India within Seconds

Standard Chartered today announced that it has processed a remittance payment under the new retail payments scheme from Swift. In a world-first, Westpac (Australia) sent a transaction to India via Standard Chartered via this scheme. Leveraging its advanced capabilities in India, Standard Chartered enabled near real-time credit to the beneficiary bank, demonstrating a major leap in the country’s payment ecosystem.

This transaction was completed in 37 seconds end-to-end. This reiterates the Bank’s ability to complete an end-to-end transaction with any participating bank in India in record time using Swift rails. As well as the fastest possible settlement time, Swift’s retail payments scheme delivers benefits to both senders and receivers of international payments, including end-to-end transparency so that a payment can be tracked, upfront certainty of cost with no hidden fees, and no surprise FX deductions, so that the amount that is sent is exactly what lands in the beneficiary’s bank account.

At an event hosted by Swift in collaboration with the Indian Banks’ Association, focused on modernising payments, P D Singh, CEO, India & South Asia, Standard Chartered was felicitated to mark the achievement as the first bank in India to process a payment under the Swift scheme.

P D Singh, CEO, India & South Asia, at Standard Chartered, said, “Our cross-border and network capabilities have been the cornerstones of the Bank’s sharp focus across key markets including India. It is indeed a moment of great pride for Standard Chartered, India, to be globally the first bank to process a payment within seconds under Swift’s retail payment scheme. We’re enabling people all over the world to send money back to India just as easily as they can send money domestically.

With this initiative they will get a truly best-in-class payments experience backed by the security of the banking ecosystem, and we’re delighted to be working with the industry to make it possible,” Singh added.

Kiran Shetty, Chief Executive of Swift India and South Asia, said, “This demonstrates the power of Swift’s cutting-edge capabilities; leveraging its existing global rails to drive real transformation in cross-border payments. For India, the world’s largest recipient of remittances, where they play a significant role in GDP, this evolution is particularly critical.

By enabling greater speed, transparency, and an improved customer experience, bringing cross-border payments closer to the simplicity of domestic UPI; Swift is helping unlock a new standard for remittances. Standard Chartered Bank’s initiative is a strong proof point that this shift is not only possible, but already underway in India, with the potential to redefine how remittances are experienced. It is also highly encouraging to see the continued regulatory push in India supporting this direction, further accelerating the move towards a faster, more transparent, and customer-centric payments ecosystem anchored by Swift,” Shetty added.

Standard Chartered Launches Sustainable Trade Loan for Financial Institutions

The offering will focus on sustainable end-use within the renewable energy sector

Standard Chartered today launched a sustainable trade loan offering for financial institutions. The new offering supports the Bank’s financial institution clients globally by providing liquidity to support the underlying trade flows associated with sustainable development, in areas where it is most needed.

With a current focus on the sustainable end-use¹ pillar within the renewable energy sector, the bank will reference its Green and Sustainable Product Framework – co-authored by ESG data, research and ratings firm, Morningstar Sustainalytics – on eligible activities the facility can be used to finance. Some examples include installation of wind turbines, purchase of solar panels, and sale of renewable energy battery storage systems.

The lack of funding for sustainability initiatives continues to be a challenge for companies – the bank’s recent research report notes that approximately 70% of large corporates and mid-sized companies found obtaining funding or finance for ESG and sustainability-related expenses and investments to be a major issue. Standard Chartered’s sustainable trade loan thus provides financial institutions with the much-needed liquidity to support trade flows associated with clean technology projects, accelerating the progress of [their] clients in meeting net zero commitments as part of their overall sustainability agenda.

“We know that many financial institutions and their clients want to play a greater role in driving sustainable outcomes by directing capital to where it matters most in their markets,” said Samuel Matthew, Global Head of Flow and Financial Institutions Trade at Standard Chartered. “The launch of our sustainable trade loan for financial institutions clients aims to support them by providing liquidity for flows that meet their sustainability aspirations. It further demonstrates our commitment to be a force for good by delivering targeted solutions and capabilities that can help to close the financing gap needed to achieve these goals.”

The offering builds on the bank’s sustainable trade finance proposition that was announced in March 2021, which was designed to help companies implement more sustainable practices across their ecosystems and build more resilient supply chains.

Standard Chartered Invests in Partior, A JP Morgan and Temasek-backed Blockchain Payment Network

Standard Chartered has invested in Partior, the blockchain-based payment network founded last year by Singapore government-owned investment fund Temasek, J.P. Morgan and DBS Bank. 

With this investment, Standard Chartered becomes a founding Shareholder of Partior. Standard Chartered will serve as the first Euro settlement bank for the Partior platform.

Partior is an open industry platform, ​developed to make digital clearing and settlement more efficient, reliable, and secure by harnessing the benefits of blockchain and smart contracts technology.

As an Open Platform, Partior addresses current points of friction that enables banks around the world to provide real-time cross-border multi-currency payments, trade finance, foreign exchange and DVP securities settlements on a world-class platform, with programmability, immutability, traceability built into its suite of services.

With investment from Standard Chartered, Partior on track to achieve its plan to broaden its currency offerings beyond the first slate of eight global currencies – USD, SGD, GBP, EUR, AUD, JPY, CNH and HKD, by 2023.

Based out of Singapore, Partior started as Project Ubin, in 2016, a collaborative project with the industry to explore the use of Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) for clearing and settlement of payments and securities. In 2020, Project Ubin develops a prototype that validates CBDC cross-border payments are cheaper and faster.

Eventually in last year, Partior goes live with SGD and USD, and this year it goes for commercial expansion with 8 currencies selected for onboarding (mentioned above) . Team Partior also won this year’s G20 TechSprint, an international contest to search for innovative solutions for operational problems in green and sustainable finance. Partior was selected among winners for "improving interoperability" category for their solution Project Naucratis: Enabling Connectivity & Interoperability for mCBDC, which is a blockchain-based multi-CBDC network that supports both account-based and token based CBDC models.

Partior, an independent company, is the blockchain platform for payments clearing and settlement that grew from the Project Ubin collaboration, and founded by J.P. Morgan, DBS and Temasek, with the backing of MAS, to achieve end-to-end atomic settlements in multiple currencies, and replace the sequential approach to payments settlement.

The platform aims to make digital clearing and settlement more efficient, reliable and secure for financial institutions worldwide by leveraging the key benefits of programmability, immutability and traceability, inherent features of blockchain and distributed ledgers, and aims to address multi-currency and cross-border payments pain points.

Standard Chartered Bank First Entity to Fund Ventilator Prototype by IIT Kanpur

The fund will go towards developing and testing the prototype for quick availability to hospitals treating patients of COVID-19

Standard Chartered Bank has come forward as the first entity to support an indigenized, affordable, portable and invasive ventilator prototype being developed by IIT Kanpur and its incubated company Nocca Robotics along with the Indian Angel Network. Standard Chartered Bank has approved a generous CSR funding that will be used for research and development of the prototype, followed by testing of the device and clinical trials.

"We are extremely grateful to Standard Chartered Bank for enabling our efforts towards fighting this global pandemic through their generous funding. Given the urgency of proper and ample healthcare facilities at this time for patients of COVID-19, this fund will help us in the timely roll-out of the device swiftly and in time," said Professor Abhay Karandikar, Director, IIT Kanpur. He hopes and wishes this gesture by Standard Chartered Bank will motivate other corporates to come forward to assist IIT Kanpur in its research efforts to mitigate the impact of this global pandemic.

Karuna Bhatia, Head of Sustainability, Standard Chartered Bank, said, "As a socially responsible Bank which has been in the country for over 160 years, we decided to contribute in this common fight against COVID-19 and ensure a safe and healthy environment for our citizens and communities."

The ventilator design has been conceptualized by Nocca Robotics in such a way that it can be manufactured on a large scale at multiple sites using materials easily available with Indian suppliers and manufacturers. The ventilator is also capable of working with medical airline and oxygen as well as ambient air and oxygen, thus making it usable in a variety of different conditions.

The ventilator will also be connected to a mobile phone to control the device and monitor critical information. Since it will require very low wattage to run, it can be powered using solar panels.

It is also noteworthy that the ventilator will be priced at a fraction of the cost proposed by competitors across the world developing similar devices. Also, as opposed to the non-invasive ventilators being currently developed, this design will be of the invasive kind, keeping in mind the needs of COVID-19 patients for respiratory support.

Nocca Robotics and IIT Kanpur have created a consortium of bio-medical engineers, doctors, R&D leaders, supply chain and MedTech businesses to harness their expertise and take the design from the idea to the actual product. The entire project is being coordinated by Prof. Amitabha Bandyopadhyay, Department of Biological Sciences and Bioengineering and Professor-in-Charge, Startup Innovation & Incubation Center Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur
