Gate News message, April 27 — Ripple, a blockchain-based enterprise solutions company, announced a strategic partnership with K Bank, a South Korean bank, to validate blockchain-based cross-border remittance technology. The partnership agreement was signed at K Bank’s headquarters in Seoul on April 27, with Fiona Murray, Ripple’s Asia-Pacific Regional Head, and Choi Woo-hyung, K Bank’s CEO, leading the signing ceremony.
Through this partnership, K Bank will leverage Ripple’s global network and blockchain infrastructure to verify improvements in speed, cost, and transparency of existing international money transfers. The two organizations are currently conducting proof-of-concept (PoC) tests, with discussions covering Ripple’s digital wallet-based PoC, support for K Bank’s overseas remittance model, and expanded collaboration in digital assets. In the first PoC phase, K Bank tested a standalone app-based remittance structure using its own wallet implementation. The second PoC phase, currently underway, validates account and internal system integration while testing on-chain remittance methods targeting key markets including the United Arab Emirates and Thailand. For this phase, K Bank will utilize Ripple’s Palisade, a global SaaS-based digital wallet, to identify optimal solutions.
