Ripple joins forces with BIS in cross-border payments initiative
The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) has introduced a cross-border payments interoperability and extension (PIE) task force, with Ripple, the blockchain-based digital payment network, being one of its notable participants. XRP, a cryptocurrency used by Ripple in its On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) solution, was recently classified as not a security.
The BIS, an international financial institution owned by member central banks, released a summary of the PIE task force’s meeting on May 11, which outlines the task force’s commitment to enhancing cross-border payments and achieving the quantitative goals established by the G20 in this area.
The Financial Stability Board (FSB), an international organization dedicated to the global financial , presented priority actions for achieving G20 targets in February 2023
It emphasized accelerating transaction speed, reducing costs, and enhancing transparency, safety, and security in cross-border transactions
The FSB collaborated with the Committee on Payments and Market Infrastructures (CPMI) and other relevant international organizations to develop a comprehensive Roadmap to address these challenges, which G20 Leaders endorsed in November 2020.

Despite being included in the G20 payments initiative task force, Ripple is involved in a legal dispute with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The regulator has requested a review of the recent court decision labeling XRP a commodity through an appellate court, despite the unresolved case, which leaves Ripple’s future uncertain.
