Ibis Management Associated has created the new platform in cooperation with Ripple’s U.K.-based partner Finastra.

SWISSRoute RippleNet Adapter connects modern banks with each other via a single highly secured channel. It is based on SWIFT but also includes RippleNet.

The creators of SWISSRoute believe that a combination of both technologies will provide their clients with the best options and much richer opportunities for banking than if either RippleNet or SWIFT would be used separately.
