Swift ledger

Swift ledger is a blockchain-based shared ledger announced at Sibos 2025, designed with more than 40 financial institutions as an orchestration layer for 24/7 cross-border payments using tokenized deposits. It preserves commercial bank money and Swift's role as a messaging network, with final settlement through existing mechanisms.

How institutions connect to Swift ledger

Connectivity requires wallets and tokenization capabilities on permissioned infrastructure. Taurus completed connectivity to Swift ledger and integrated Swift smart contracts with Taurus-CAPITAL and Taurus-PROTECT on permissioned Hyperledger Besu, with three connection paths: Besu operated by Taurus as a managed service, connection to an institution's existing Besu or EVM-compatible infrastructure, or extension of an existing Taurus-PROTECT instance in days.

Swift ledger, explained

Does Swift ledger replace existing settlement?
No. Tokenized deposits stay on banks' balance sheets, payment availability extends toward 24/7, and final settlement continues through existing arrangements such as RTGS systems. Swift's role as a global messaging network is unchanged.
