Banco Santander

"The closing of our Series C reflects a shared conviction that the future of money demands a new foundation, one with Fnality at its core. Our blockchain-based settlement systems, anchored in the credit quality of central bank money, connect traditional finance with the fast adoption of tokenized and decentralized markets. With 24/7 payment rails, real-time settlement, and enhanced liquidity management, we’re not just modernizing wholesale payments, we’re building a future that fuses Decentralized Finance’s operational optimization with Traditional Finance’s capital efficiency. This investment accelerates our journey toward a financial market infrastructure that is more resilient, more inclusive, and ready for the hybrid future of global finance."

"Small and medium-sized businesses are a major engine of growth around the world, creating new jobs and contributing up to 60% of total employment and up to 40% of national GDP in emerging economies. SMEs are becoming increasingly global and Santander is the best positioned bank to play a leading role to help them access global trade finance. By partnering with Ebury, Santander will deliver faster and more efficient products and services for SMEs, previously only accessible to larger corporates."
