Deutsche Bank makes its first euro cross-border payment on Partior, with DBS as beneficiary

Partior/Partior settlement network

Deutsche Bank acted as settlement bank and DBS as beneficiary in a live euro payment, months after Deutsche signed its platform agreement in May 2025. The banks connected the blockchain to traditional payment rails so the payment crossed different market infrastructures.

• Partior CEO Humphrey Valenbreder: the new rails 'create real, live business opportunities'.
• Deutsche Bank's Patricia Sullivan: settling on the blockchain gives real-time confirmation and fewer failed payments.
