Paxos, the regulated blockchain and tokenization infrastructure platform, has partnered with Standard Chartered to enhance Global Dollar (USDG) and Lift Dollar (USDL) reserve management.
Through this collaboration, Standard Chartered will provide cash management, trading, and custody services, strengthening the infrastructure supporting the “trusted” digital assets in Singapore and UAE.
Both USDG and USDL are “fully backed” and “trusted” stablecoins issued under prudential regulatory oversight.
Paxos maintains standards in reserve management and holds short-term, highly liquid US government securities and cash equivalents to “ensure that stablecoins maintain 1:1 parity with the US dollar.”
This guarantees convertibility to fiat currency while “reinforcing trust” in Paxos’ ecosystem.
Via this collab, Standard Chartered will support Paxos’ global tokenization platform by offering seamless integration with a suite of banking capabilities across transaction banking, financial markets, and securities services.
With a commitment to engaging with regulators, Standard Chartered delivers tailored solutions to navigate the complexities of digital asset custody, making it a “strong banking provider for Paxos’ digital assets.”
This relationship also simplifies how companies can access Paxos’ suite of trusted stablecoins.
Adam Ackermann, Head of Treasury and Portfolio Management at Paxos, said:
“As the stablecoin industry continues to attract the world’s leading enterprises, it’s more important than ever to ensure they have access to sophisticated, institutional-grade products.“
John Collura, Global Head of Banks & Broker Dealer Sales and Head of Europe & Americas for Financing and Securities Services at Standard Chartered, said:
“By providing robust cash management, trading, and custody services, we’re enabling the next generation of secure and regulated digital assets solutions that drive global adoption and economic inclusion.”
Global Dollar (USDG) is a US dollar-backed stablecoin issued by Paxos Digital Singapore, and is substantively compliant with the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s (MAS) “upcoming stablecoin regulatory framework.”
This ensures USDG meets the standards of “consumer protection and regulatory compliance.”
Paxos International, which is regulated by the Financial Services Regulatory Authority of Abu Dhabi Global Market, launched the US dollar-backed stablecoin Lift Dollar (USDL).
USDL passes daily “programmatic safe yield” to its end holders.
As noted in the update, Paxos has a track record in the industry “as a blockchain and stablecoin infrastructure provider.”
Prudentially regulated by entities with guaranteed 1:1 asset parity, Paxos stablecoins are built to suit the interests of digital asset holders.
