We’re excited to announce that Chainlink is powering cross-border DvP settlement between the Central Bank of Brazil (@BancoCentralBR) & Hong Kong Monetary Authority (@hkmagovhk) alongside Banco Inter, Standard Chartered, GSBN, & 7COMm in the Drex program.

https://t.co/Y2lkU4cHyc

In phase two of the Central Bank of Brazil’s (BCB) Drex project, which is focused on cross-border trade, Chainlink connected BCB with the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) to orchestrate seamless and secure trade settlement across jurisdictions in a compliant manner.

In addition to BCB, HKMA, and Chainlink, there were multiple leading organizations involved in this workflow:

• Standard Chartered (@StanChart)—Global bank with over $800 billion in total assets.

• Banco Inter (@interbr)—The Brazilian financial super-app serving over 40 million users.

• Global Shipping Business Network (@gsbn_trade)—The consortium empowering digital trade with its data infrastructure and ecosystem partners.

• 7COMm—Technology provider serving the largest financial institutions in Brazil.

Chainlink powers the DvP solution end-to-end and enables conditional, installment-based payments for goods via different digital currencies and tokenized reserves with:

• Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) established interoperability channels between the Drex platform and the Hong Kong Ensemble Network (led by the HKMA), and between the DLT-based Trade Finance Platform (TFP) on Besu and GSBN. This enabled CRE to seamlessly transfer payment instructions between Drex, Banco Inter, and HKMA—translating messages into the correct format when needed (e.g., ISO 20022 for HKMA)—and to call the GSBN API to trigger eBL (electronic Bill of Lading) transfers.

• Chainlink CCIP enabled secure communication between the Drex platform and TFP, ensuring events such as contract execution or credit release to be automatically synchronized between different networks.

This solution marks the first time a blockchain-based title registry and cross-chain payment infrastructure were connected via a single, automated workflow, setting a new standard for global trade settlement.

Bruno Grossi, Head of Emerging Technologies at Banco Inter:

“By implementing Chainlink as the standard for connecting the Central Bank of Brazil, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, and existing trade finance platforms, we’re building a more connected financial ecosystem that will underpin the future of global trade.”

We’re excited to announce that @FTSERussell, a leading global index provider with $18T+ in AUM benchmarked, is collaborating with Chainlink to publish its world-leading global indices onchain for the first time via DataLink.

https://t.co/Nk1jMHeesG

With this integration, the Russell 1000 Index, Russell 2000 Index, Russell 3000 Index, FTSE 100 Index, WMR FX benchmarks, FTSE DAR Digital Asset Prices, and the FTSE Digital Asset Index will be available on 40+ blockchains via DataLink, an institutional-grade data publishing service powered by Chainlink.

FTSE Russell indexes are globally adopted, covering 98% of the investible market worldwide:

• Russell 1000 Index—A U.S. equity index composed of ~1K of the largest publicly traded U.S. companies, representing the large-cap segment of the U.S. equity market, with an average market cap of $1.2T+.

• Russell 2000 Index—Tracks approximately 2K small-cap U.S. equities and is often regarded as the leading benchmark for U.S. small-cap equity performance.

• Russell 3000 Index—Includes ~3K U.S. stocks and represents ~98% of the investable U.S. equity market. It serves as the broad benchmark for U.S. equities, covering both large and small-cap segments.

• FTSE 100 Index—Tracks the 100 largest companies listed on the London Stock Exchange by market cap. The index serves as the primary performance indicator for United Kingdom blue-chip equities.

DataLink leverages Chainlink’s proven infrastructure to enable institutions to seamlessly distribute and commercialize their data onchain, while retaining full control and eliminating the need to build and maintain dedicated infrastructure.

By bringing FTSE Russell benchmarks onchain, DataLink accelerates institutional adoption of digital assets by providing financial institutions access to the same trusted data they already rely on today to support their financial services.

Ultimately, DataLink brings foundational institutional use cases to the blockchain economy while enabling onchain applications to launch new assets and markets faster.

At the @federalreserve, @SergeyNazarov outlines the fragmentation issues institutions face as more private and public chains are deployed:

More chains ​​→ Siloed capital ​​→ Increased market risk ​​→ Restricted market growth

How Chainlink is solving this issue for the world's largest financial organizations ↓

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) released a report on Phase 2 of its e-HKD program, publishing the results of multiple industry initiatives, including a key cross-chain settlement solution powered by Chainlink with ANZ, China AMC, and Fidelity International.

In the solution, ANZ, China AMC, and Fidelity International leveraged Chainlink CCIP and the Automated Compliance Engine (ACE) to meet both institutional cross-chain interoperability and compliance requirements for secure cross-chain settlement of tokenized assets.

This proves how Australia-based investors can acquire tokenized money market fund units from Hong Kong-based asset managers using e-HKD and tokenized deposits.

This solves the three biggest challenges of institutional tokenized asset transactions:

1. Trusted data—Providing secure, high-quality data needed to accurately price assets in transactions and enable transfer agents.

2. Cross-chain connectivity—Connecting multiple chains to seamlessly move both value and data across networks via Chainlink CCIP.

3. Automated compliance—Enabling automated compliance enforcement by providing onchain identity proofs and matching them against policies from multiple jurisdictions and regulatory frameworks via Chainlink’s Automated Compliance Engine (ACE).

By unifying these capabilities under a single standard, Chainlink enables institutional-grade tokenized asset transactions end-to-end at scale, unlocking the next generation of regulated tokenized finance.

With Chainlink speaking first

[Chainlink @chainlink]

S&P Global Ratings, the world’s leading provider of credit ratings, benchmarks, and analytics referenced by 95% of the top 20 global institutional investors, has partnered with Chainlink to publish its Stablecoin Stability Assessments (SSAs) onchain for the first time through DataLink.

Through this partnership, more than 2,400 institutions, protocols, and developers in the Chainlink ecosystem can now directly access these assessments across 40+ public and private blockchains.

This milestone marks a major leap forward in the capital markets’ adoption of tokenized finance.

As S&P Global increasingly moves onchain, the company brings with it:

• Over 1 million credit ratings outstanding
• 1,500+ credit analysts across 150+ countries
• Ratings coverage for ~1 million securities
• 4,600+ corporates rated globally

The stablecoin market now exceeds $300 billion, nearly doubling from a year prior. With the passage of the GENIUS Act, the first U.S. federal regulatory framework for stablecoins, these digital assets are now positioned as core financial infrastructure for global payments, trade, and settlement.

However, institutions seeking to integrate stablecoins require transparent, standardized, and verifiable onchain risk insights to do so responsibly.

S&P Global Ratings’ SSAs fill that gap. These assessments evaluate a stablecoin’s ability to maintain parity with fiat currencies, scored from 1 (very strong) to 5 (weak), based on asset quality, governance, liquidity, redemption mechanisms, and track record.

Chainlink infrastructure, which actively secures nearly $100 billion in DeFi TVL and has enabled more than $25 trillion in onchain transaction value, ensures these assessments are delivered with industry-standard reliability, security, and data integrity.

This partnership signals the beginning of a new era in financial markets, where real-time, institutionally validated risk data becomes the foundational layer of onchain finance.
