DBS Bank, one of the biggest names in the banking industry, and the largest lender in Southeast Asia, has confirmed that it was among the first few banks to test the trading of foreign exchange and government securities using permissioned decentralized finance (DeFi) liquidity pools on a public blockchain as a part of Singapore’s Project Guardian.
O banco DBS, com sede em Cingapura, também acrescentou que os negócios sob o Project Guardian foram testados para explorar e testar os desenvolvimentos de tecnologia financeira na cidade-estado usando novas tecnologias, como blockchain e finanças descentralizadas (DeFi). De acordo com um relatório, as negociações consistiram na compra e venda de títulos do governo de Cingapura tokenizados, juntamente com o dólar de Cingapura, títulos do governo do Japão e iene japonês.
Project Guardian is an innitiative between Singapore’s government and the city-state’s financial industry and its goal is to explore the benefits associated with the integration of blockchain technology in the traditional finance industry with the help of asset tokenization and DeFi. Moreover, the project also aims to reduce the risks to financial stability and integrity while carrying out this task.
“This test trade has demonstrated that by harnessing the power of blockchain, the standards by which financial institutions currently deal with each other can be transformed and reimagined for greater efficiency and transparency,” said Han Kwee Juan, group head of strategy and planning, at DBS.
Além disso, também é crucial observar que o teste foi feito em colaboração com players conhecidos do setor financeiro, e DBS Bank Ltd., JP Morgan e SBI Digital Asset Holdings trabalharam juntos neste novo empreendimento. O teste envolveu a criação de um pool de liquidez autorizado composto por títulos e depósitos tokenizados.
This venture from the financial giants comes at a time when the financial regulator of the city-state, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), aims to lead the global crypto industry with blockchain adoption and regulation of digital assets. However, the regulator is also taking measures to prevent financial disasters like Do Kwon’s Terra ecosystem collapse.
De acordo com Han, a negociação em um pool de liquidez autorizado forneceu o benefício de negociação instantânea, liquidação, compensação e custódia simultaneamente, o que resolve vários problemas relacionados às finanças tradicionais, reduzindo o atrito e minimizando os riscos. Além disso, o DBS Bank acredita que a integração da tecnologia blockchain pode transformar os atuais processos de negociação.
“A highly liquid market attracts more investors and achieves efficiency gains by bypassing intermediaries,” Han said in the statement.
Furthermore, in a statement, Sopnendu Mohanty, Chief FinTech Officer at MAS, stated that the live pilots “demonstrate that with the appropriate guardrails in place, digital assets and decentralized finance have the potential to transform capital markets.”
