ST Engg, Montran Corp inks MOU for digtialisation of APAC payments' systems

They will also establish a centre of excellence in Singapore.

ST Engineering and financial solutions firm Montran Corporation have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to establish an alliance focusing on the digitalisation of payments and securities settlement systems for APAC’s financial services industry, according to a press release.

The partnership will be anchored by the establishment of a state-of-the-art Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Singapore, according to the announcement.

It will see ST Engineerings’s capabilities in designing, building and operating secure, resilient and modernised critical information infrastructures combine with with Montran’s extensive experience in global payments, securities settlement and clearing infrastructure solutions.

Furthermore, this comprehensive CoE will spearhead the development and implementation of advanced, secured and ISO 20022-compliant real-time gross settlement, central securities depository and payment system solutions.

The alliance will also cover initiatives such as the modernisation of payment solutions technology to support the financial services ecosystem for a globalised network that can be hosted, monitored, governed and secured within a hybrid or multi-cloud management under the CoE, amongst others, the joint release added.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
