OCBC executes intraday reverse repo using JP Morgan's Onyx DLT - 0 views

  •  
    Singapore's OCBC bank executed an intraday reverse repurchase (repo) transaction on JP Morgan's Onyx Digital Assets platform, in which it lent money to JP Morgan, receiving tokenized securities in exchange. Less than four hours later, the transaction was unwound together with interest. JP Morgan said this was the first time an external counterparty had the ability to execute reverse repos. It's usually JP Morgan that does the cash lending to clients, taking tokenized securities in exchange. So far it has ten clients using the repo platform, which has conducted a cumulative $1.5 trillion in transactions since its launch in 2020."

It's Time to Explore Institutional DeFi - 0 views

  •  
    The Oliver Wyman Forum, in partnership with DBS, JP Morgan's Onyx, and SBI, published a paper that makes the case for "institutional DeFi" , a system that combines the power and efficiency of decentralized finance (DeFi) software protocols with a level of protections and controls that regulators demand and customers expect. These include identity solutions to enable financial institutions to comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and know your customer (KYC) regulations, strong cybersecurity to minimize the threat of hacking incidents, and recourse mechanisms to make investors whole if something goes wrong.

The Biggest Crypto Fantasy Of All - 0 views

  •  
    "No cryptocurrency has anything like the capacity to serve as a medium of exchange in the modern retail economy. Blockchain is an interesting and useful technology, suitable for small networks, centrally administered, that need quick and reliable execution on high-value transactions. The Onyx system developed by JP Morgan for settlement of wholesale inter-bank repo transactions is an example that seems to be successful. But blockchain cannot currently address the capacity requirements of massive retail payments systems."

    Onyx by JP Morgan has launched programmable payments for blockchain-based accounts on JPM Coin. The solution allows users to use an if-this-then-that interface to program their transactions. Customers can control their JPM Coin accounts in new ways such as dynamic funding, in which they can apply various rules for funding a bank account in case of shortfalls, and event-based payouts, in which they can execute transactions depending on various needs such as delivery of assets. On November 6, Siemens AG completed its first payment using the feature, and FedEx and Cargill will be going live with the solution in the next few weeks.

First Abu Dhabi Bank pilots JPM Coin for programmable payments - 0 views

  •  
    First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB) is the first financial institution to pilot JPM Coin programmable payment functionality. FAB's trials included initiating payments based on time triggers and balance thresholds, for example, the transfer of funds out of an account if the balance is too high, or into the account if it's too low. Or, a planned payment is only sent out depending on its impact on the account balance. https://www.bankfab.com/en-ae/about-fab/group/in-the-media/fab-successfully-pilots-programmable-payments-through-onyx-by-jp-morgan
