Standard Bank has become the first African bank to connect directly to China’s Cross-Border Interbank Payment System, marking a major shift in how African businesses settle trade with China. The new integration allows companies to make payments straight to Chinese partners in renminbi, removing the need for dollar-based transactions and cutting both cost and processing time.

The move strengthens Africa’s financial ties with China and gives import-driven businesses a faster and more predictable payment route. It also places South Africa at the centre of a broader push toward diversified global payment systems, reducing exposure to currency fluctuations and simplifying cross-border trade.
