Ripple obtains MPI license in Singapore

Singapore is one of Ripple’s fastest growing markets, it said.

Blockchain and crypto solutions provider Ripple has clinched a major payments institution (MPI) license from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS).

With this, Ripple will be able to offer regulated digital payment tokens (DPTs) services in the Lion City.

Today, over 90% of Ripple’s business is outside of the US, and Singapore – and to a larger degree Asia Pacific – is one of its fastest growing regions.

Ripple said that it will continue to prioritise the Asia Pacific region for adoption of its crypto-enabled payments solutions.

Ripple said that it will continue its engagement with the MAS with key executives speaking at the Elevandi Insights Forum and the Singapore Fintech Festival from 14 to 17 November 2023.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
