#Cross-Border Payments

The Bank for International Settlements' advanced prototypes, including mBridge and BIS Agora, are establishing a new, real-time, multi-CBDC standard for international payments, signaling a structural shift away from legacy correspondent banking systems.

The partnership integrates USDC settlement directly into Nium’s global rails, transitioning cross-border payments from capital-intensive prefunding models to rapid, just-in-time settlement via a unified fiat-and-on-chain platform.
