Meritz Securities and Ripple reached an agreement on October 14 to explore custody services and tokenisation infrastructure within Meritz’s existing South Korean permissions.

The deal marks Ripple’s first partnership with a South Korean securities firm and does not indicate an immediate increase in XRP trading volume.
