IBM announced on September 24 a beta connection between its Digital Asset Haven platform and SWIFT’s shared ledger for tokenized deposits, using an ISO 20022 messaging adapter.

IBM also launched an on-premises beta allowing regulated clients to run Haven entirely inside their own IBM Z and LinuxONE data centers, removing public-cloud dependency.
