JPMC Adds Deutsche Bank To Blockchain Roster
DB (Deutsche Bank AG) | PYMNTS
Deutsche Bank, Germany’s largest bank, is joining the 320 banks in the JPMorgan Chase-led blockchain initiative, the Financial Times reported Sunday (Sept. 15). The move is intended to lower costs at Deutsche Bank — which clears more euro-denominated payments than any bank worldwide — and speed up cross-border disbursements to avoid expensive lag times. Matthiessen also said Deutsche Bank could also make use of IIN’s platform to share know-your-customer (KYC) checks with other banks. To solve the problem, seven European payments operators announced earlier this month the start of a new pan-European network focused on cross-border mobile payments called the European Mobile Payment System Association initiative. In June, the Chinese digital payment player Alipay and a handful of European mobile wallets announced a partnership to promote QR code payment interoperability.

U.S. shale seen unlikely to quickly replace barrels lost in attack on Saudi facilities
CVX (Chevron Corporation) | Financial Post

Still, its ultralight, sweet barrels are not similar enough to be a good substitute for lost Arab Light oil, Johnson said.
