The claims ledger

Claims specific enough to be falsified — and the ones that remain the venue's own measurement.

Testable claims

  • Standard Chartered's FX trading network stretches across emerging markets in Asia, Africa and the Middle East, transacting since doors opened in Mumbai, Kolkata and Shanghai in 1853 (sc.com fx-capabilities page)
  • SC PrismFX is the bank's cross-currency transactional FX solutions suite for Financial Institution, NBFI, PayTech and Corporate clients globally (sc.com press release)
  • Institutional digital-asset trading launched through its UK entity as an FCA-registered cryptoasset firm, with clients accessing cryptoassets through familiar FX interfaces (sc.com press release)

Claims we cannot verify from outside

  • FX volume / market-position claims (self-measured)
