SBI Group has formed a partnership with Chainlink
The goal is to develop services that support real-world financial use, such as tokenized assets, cross-border payments, and on-chain verification systems.
This collaboration will initially target the Japanese market and later expand across the Asia-Pacific region. The companies plan to build tools that allow assets like bonds to be represented digitally and moved across different blockchains.

They also intend to use Chainlink’s technology to confirm the backing of stablecoins by showing reserve data directly on-chain.
Chainlink’s system for connecting different blockchain networks will play a central role in these efforts. SBI wants to use it to support activities such as foreign exchange and cross-border money transfers, especially in regulated environments.
One area of focus will be providing data about the net asset value (NAV) of tokenized investment funds using Chainlink’s on-chain data services. This could help investors, managers, and regulators monitor funds in real time without relying on separate reports.
Yoshitaka Kitao, CEO and president of SBI Holdings, emphasized that stablecoin-powered payments and other tools created through this partnership could help make digital assets more accessible across the region.
