Deutsche Bank has contributed to Partior’s Series B funding round as a strategic investor, increasing the total investment to $80m. Partior is a blockchain-based fintech for real-time clearing and settlement.

Following the initial close led by Peak XV Partners in July 2024, which included participation from JPMorgan, Jump Trading Group, Standard Chartered, Temasek, and Valor Capital Group, this is the close of the second round of Partior’s Series B funding.

With the help of Deutsche Bank, Singapore-based Partior will expand its cross-border capabilities, expand its worldwide reach, and create and improve innovative tools including Just-in-Time multi-bank transfers and intraday FX swaps.

Partior was founded in 2021 and is supported by DBS Bank, JPMorgan, Standard Chartered, Temasek, and Peak XV.

It facilitates atomic clearing and settlement in real-time, offering instant liquidity and transparency, improving security, and resolving issues that are frequently related to sequential processing in legacy payment systems.

Moreover, Deutsche Bank intends to become part of the Partior platform as a Euro and US dollar settlement bank, underscoring its commitment to providing its customers with immediate, secure, and flexible settlement solutions.
