A bit more about us 

Digital transformation is changing our lives, work and businesses. While other sectors evolve, however, financial markets remain slow, fragmented and siloed. What the world needs now is a future-facing financial system for the digital age. 

At Fnality, we have been speaking – and listening – to the real users of today’s financial systems. From businesses to banks, there is a clear, collective ambition for a simpler, faster, safer and more resilient payment system; one that can move and settle money quickly and efficiently, with minimized risk and much more transparency. 

Fnality Global Payments 

We are building a network of new payment systems that will enable tokenised, peer-to-peer markets. 

Fnality Global Payments (FnGP) will comprise a series of national systems, each regulated in its home jurisdiction. We call each of these a Fnality Payment System (FnPS). 

In each payment system, a Fnality settlement asset will act as the settlement/payment asset for any Payment (P), Delivery v, Payment (DvP) or payment vs. payment (PvP) need. 

FnGP are underpinned by Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT). The nature of DLT is such that it enables FnGP to: 

  • Operate a true peer-to-peer market 
  • Allow for immediate settlement 
  • Interoperate across business platforms and jurisdictions 

The key benefits of the above are: 

  • Reduced counter-party and credit risk 
  • Reduced operational risk 
  • Efficient liquidity management 
  • An ability to move resources from risk mitigation to business growth
