Standard Chartered has launched custody services for Ripple USD (RLUSD) stablecoin at its Dubai branch, enabling institutional clients to securely hold RLUSD. Ripple and LMAX Group plan to allow institutions to use RLUSD as trading collateral on LMAX without transferring tokens to the exchange, pending regulatory approval.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech, and 3 sources have reported it.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You can now access stablecoin custody through Standard Chartered’s regulated Dubai branch, opening institutional crypto markets with trusted bank custody. Using RLUSD as collateral on LMAX without token transfer reduces frictions and risk, so check for upcoming approvals and partnership openings this quarter.
