Interoperability Update on Cross-Border Digital Asset Settlement

August 31, 2025 • 6 min read

Evaluating pilots that link wholesale CBDC sandboxes with private settlement networks to streamline cross-border flows.

Programme Landscape

Wholesale CBDC experiments are increasingly interfacing with private settlement chains to achieve delivery-versus-payment without relying on correspondent banking rails.

What We Are Tracking

Multi-CBDC corridors such as mBridge moving from proof-of-concept to limited production with trade finance partners.
Interoperability layers that translate messaging standards (ISO 20022, SWIFT) into atomic settlement instructions.
Compliance frameworks that synchronise KYC, AML, and sanctions screening across jurisdictional nodes.

The Aureon settlement readiness index scores participating financial institutions on connectivity, reporting maturity, and resilience.
