By utilizing Chainlink\u2019s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol, the partnership seeks to unlock cross-chain tokenized real-world assets including bonds and real estate.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the integration will increase liquidity, facilitate more effective fund administration, and bring fund net asset value data onchain.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>The partnership will also use Chainlink\u2019s Proof of Reserve to ensure stablecoin reserve transparency while investigating new settlement techniques, such as payment versus payment for foreign exchange and cross-border transactions.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Expanding SBI and Chainlink partnership<\/h2>\n<p>Chainlink co-founder Sergey Nazarov said SBI\u2019s adoption of the protocol validates its role as the standard for secure and compliant institutional transactions. SBI chief executive officer Yoshitaka Kitao added that the partnership combines Chainlink\u2019s leading interoperability solutions with SBI\u2019s financial expertise to drive mainstream adoption.<\/p>\n<p>The two companies have previously worked together. Under Singapore\u2019s Project Guardian, SBI Digital Markets, Chainlink, and UBS Asset Management tested automated fund administration in 2023, demonstrating early success in use cases for tokenized funds.<\/p>\n<p>The SBI deal boosts Chainlink\u2019s position in Asia\u2019s rapidly expanding digital asset ecosystem, where it is already used by major financial players like Swift, Euroclear, and Fidelity. For SBI, the move strengthens its commitment to building a global blockchain-powered financial infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chainlink and Japan\u2019s SBI Group have announced a strategic partnership to accelerate institutional adoption of blockchain-based financial products across global markets.
