Ant International, a Singapore-based payments and treasury technology provider, said it completed live Hong Kong dollar interbank transfers with Bank of China (Hong Kong), China Construction Bank (Asia), and HSBC under the Hong Kong Monetary Authority’s EnsembleTX between September and October 2026.

The company said the transactions used tokenised deposits settled in central bank money and were initiated through its blockchain-based WhaleRTP wholesale settlement platform.

Ant International said the transfers took up to five minutes from payment instruction to final receipt.

Ant International said the setup gave it round-the-clock liquidity access for cash management in Hong Kong. The company has participated in the Hong Kong Monetary Authority’s Ensemble Sandbox since 2024 and has been a Project Ensemble Architecture Community member since 2025.
