Deutsche Bank collaborates with Ant International’s Embedded Finance unit on a series of global treasury management and cross-border payment solutions, including tokenized deposits, stablecoin, and its Time-Series Transformer (TST) FX Model.
Furthermore, Deutsche Bank is among the first German financial institutions to enable Ant International’s blockchain-based real-time treasury management platform, allowing real-time fund transfers between Ant International’s internal entities. This initiative will facilitate improved and transparent global treasury management for Ant.
