The post Ripple Expands Into SWIFT System With Treasury Platform appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Ripple’s Treasury platform joining the SWIFT Certified Partner Program is being seen as a major step toward traditional finance. Still, analysts say the reality is more nuanced than the hype suggests. So, let’s break down what actually happened. Ripple Pushes Deeper Into Banking Rails Following its $1 billion acquisition of GTreasury in 2025, Ripple has expanded its Treasury platform into SWIFT’s ecosystem. The system now connects with tools like Alliance Lite2 and supports SWIFT messaging, while also integrating channels such as APIs, SFTP, and EBICS.

It also includes real-time IBAN and ABA lookup tools, making cross-border operations smoother for treasury teams.
