STANDARD Chartered's Singapore unit has pulled off its first cross-border trade finance transaction on a blockchain-based platform, after previous initiatives by other arms of the global lender.
StanChart tapped startup Distributed Ledger Technologies' platform to complete an agri-business supply chain deal in one day, instead of the normal five to seven, the bank announced on Thursday.
