Xryma Plc Joins ECB's T2 Real-Time Gross Settlement Network
Cyprus-based Xryma Plc has connected to the ECB's T2 RTGS network, enabling cross-border euro payments to settle in seconds rather than days.

Connecting to T2 — the ECB's core interbank payment rail — allows Xryma to process euro-denominated cross-border transactions in a matter of seconds, a stark improvement over traditional correspondent-banking arrangements that can take multiple business days to clear and settle.
