THE HSBC FX EVERYWHERE PLATFORM IS FOUNDED ON SECURE BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY WHICH CREATES A MORE EFFICIENT SYSTEM.

Transparency, Singularity and Immutability The platform brings transparency, singularity and immutability through a single, shared version of the facts of intra-company trades, reducing risk of delay and discrepancy from execution right through to settlement.

Orchestrating Payments Payments are orchestrated through the platform in an automated process for confirmation and settlement. Transactions are automatically matched and netted, which lowers costs and reduces reliance on networks for settlement from external sources.

Optimising Balance Sheets Balance sheets are optimised as the certainty of funds are assured throughout the entire funding cycle, and forward cash flows are presented in a global consolidated view.
