Since then the partnership has grown, as Ripple continues to innovate and onboard its clients to new products and platforms that utilize XRP.

According to a recent press release from the SBI Group, the financial giant will now begin using XRP as a bridge between local fiat currencies in order to bring more efficiency to cross-border transactions.

The novel approach unveiled in this scheme aims to streamline the intricate international remittance process. In this construct, SBI Remit initiates a customer’s remittance request, and SBI VC Trade swiftly dispatches XRP in real time as a response.

This dynamic orchestration has been made possible through a strategic partnership with Tranglo Pte. Ltd., a steadfast Ripple collaborator, ensuring that customers receive their remittances in the native legal currency of their destination.

Chairman of the SBI Group Yoshitaka Kitao released this statement: “International money transfer service using Ripple’s money transfer solution utilizing XRP will be gradually expanded to the Philippines, Vietnam and Indonesia [SBI Remit, SBI VC Trade, SBI Ripple Asia].”
