Marex Group plc, the diversified global financial services platform, announces a collaboration with Brevan Howard Digital to utilize Kinexys by J.P. Morgan’s Kinexys Digital Payments in order to reduce settlement risk and facilitate more efficient payments.

Marex is the first clearing firm to use Kinexys Digital Payments’ blockchain deposit accounts to facilitate more streamlined processes with clients. Since joining Kinexys Digital Payments in 2024, Brevan Howard Digital has been actively working with industry participants to help create an ecosystem to utilize the always-on, programmable blockchain infrastructure.

Using this technology, Marex and Brevan Howard Digital can settle payments instantly, reducing settlement risk, time and cost, whilst maintaining the same level of security provided by traditional payment settlement rails.

By enabling programmable payment and settlement, the platform leverages automation to unlock asset utility and reduce risk.

At Brevan Howard Digital, we remain at the forefront of adopting innovative digital solutions to help deliver the best possible outcomes for our clients. Our collaboration with the teams at both of these organisations is a clear demonstration of that commitment.”

Akshika Gupta, Global Head of Client Solutions at Kinexys by J.P. Morgan, said, “Marex and Brevan Howard Digital utilizing the growing Kinexys Digital Payments network to make seamless, 24/7 settlements represents a significant milestone in the advancement of financial market infrastructure.
