Deutsche B枚rse Group has signed an agreement with Societe Generale Group and Societe Generale - FORGE (SG-FORGE) to accelerate the integration of token-based cash solutions with traditional financial market infrastructure.
The move aims to drive the adoption of stablecoins for strong digital European markets, with the integration of SG-FORGE鈥檚 CoinVertible as a payment and settlement stablecoin.
According to the Deutsche B枚rse Group, this will foster financial innovation in both parties, boosting their digital strategies while complementing its services.
The preliminary focus of the partnership aims to strengthen CoinVertible鈥檚 collateral management structure and usability as a settlement instrument for securities processes, for both collateral management and treasury functions at Clearstream, Deutsche B枚rse Group鈥檚 post-trade business.
Stephanie Eckermann, member of the executive board of Deutsche B枚rse Group, responsible for post-trading, comments: 鈥淭his collaboration between key European players fosters innovative power for European financial markets.
鈥淲e believe the financial sector of the future must embrace digitisation 鈥� not just in principle, but in practice.
鈥淲e continue to take decisive steps in embedding stablecoins in a regulated, reliable, and trusted infrastructure, enabling them to deliver their full value, and provide cutting-edge, innovative solutions for our clients.鈥�
According to Deutsche B枚rse Group, the partnership will also improve CoinVertible鈥檚 liquidity through a new listing on Deutsche B枚rse digital trading platforms.
Furthering the collaboration, the next steps will see a joint analysis of the possibility of integrating the euro and US dollar CoinVertible stablecoins across the whole service portfolio of Deutsche B枚rse Group.
Through this, the Group hopes to enlarge use cases for robust EU Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) compliant stablecoins natively suitable for financial institutions and the broader cryptocurrency industry.
Alexandre Fleury, co-head of Global Banking & Investor Solutions at Societe Generale Group, notes: 鈥淭his partnership between Societe Generale and Deutsche B枚rse Group in digital finance marks a major step in connecting traditional capital markets with the crypto ecosystem.
鈥淏uilding on years of collaboration in market activities and corporate finance, we are now creating bridges that will deliver innovative products and services at scale within a robust, regulated framework.鈥�
The partnership is a milestone for Deutsche B枚rse Group鈥檚 digital leadership ambition along its entire value chain, while, for Societe Generale Group鈥檚 SG-FORCE, it will contribute to reinforcing the growing importance of euro and US dollar CoinVertible stablecoins for both crypto natives and the traditional finance industry.
Jean-Marc Stenger, CEO of Societe Generale 鈥� FORGE, comments: 鈥淭his strategic partnership reinforces SG-FORGE鈥檚 position as Europe鈥檚 reference stablecoin issuer and creates a link between the crypto-native players we serve and established financial market infrastructures like Deutsche B枚rse Group.鈥�
This collaboration takes place in the context of the wholesale Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) projects initiatives, where both groups are involved.
The projects aim to digitise capital market activity by modernising issuance, settlement, and custody of financial instruments, leveraging distributed ledger technologies (DLT) and central bank digital currencies, all within a regulated and secure framework.
