As 2025 draws to a close, it is clear that the financial industry has entered a new phase of maturity. Stablecoins have moved from experimentation to real-world utility, cross-border payments have accelerated, and regulated institutions are increasingly leading innovation at the intersection of traditional banking and digital assets. Greater regulatory clarity across key markets has strengthened trust, enabling businesses to adopt faster, more efficient financial infrastructure with confidence.
At FV Bank, 2025 was a year defined by execution, scale, and technological innovation — transforming strategy into tangible outcomes for businesses operating globally.
Starting the Year with Alignment: Asia Offsite 2025
The year began with people.
FV Bank kicked off 2025 with its Asia Offsite, bringing together teams from across geographies to align on strategy, priorities, and execution plans for the year ahead. As a globally distributed organization, the offsite created valuable space for in-person collaboration, connecting colleagues working across different regions and time zones.
The sessions focused on reviewing progress, discussing plans for 2025 and beyond, and strengthening cross-functional coordination through strategic discussions and collaborative team exercises. Beyond planning and strategy, the offsite also offered opportunities for informal interactions and team-building moments, helping foster stronger connections, trust, and a shared sense of purpose.
This early alignment ensured that teams across the globe moved forward with clarity, cohesion, and a unified approach to delivering regulated, customer-centric banking solutions.

Expanding Global Payment Capabilities with SWIFT
In 2025, FV Bank expanded its payment capabilities by integrating SWIFT transfers, strengthening support for international transactions and global business operations. This enhancement enables customers to send and receive cross-border payments more efficiently, alongside ACH, domestic wires, foreign currency deposits, and stablecoin payments. Businesses can now manage global payments through a single regulated banking platform.

Launching Business Plus and Business Prime Accounts
With over five years of experience supporting fintech and blockchain-enabled businesses, FV Bank has developed deep expertise in addressing the operational, regulatory, and payment challenges faced by modern enterprises. In 2025, to better serve businesses operating at scale, FV Bank introduced Business Plus and Business Prime accounts, designed to meet the evolving needs of global companies.
Business Plus supports small and medium-sized enterprises with a robust operational account for managing day-to-day global activities, while Business Prime is tailored for enterprises requiring client fund accounts, settlement and trade accounts, and high-value transaction flows, offering higher limits and a more customized banking framework
Alongside these launches, FV Bank significantly enhanced its onboarding experience by reducing account opening timelines and introducing a more user-friendly application process. These improvements contributed to increased business onboarding throughout 2025, helping more enterprises start transacting and scaling with FV Bank sooner.
Introducing Virtual Account Numbers
To help businesses streamline incoming payment reconciliation, FV Bank introduced Virtual Account Numbers for businesses in 2025. This feature enables clients to assign dedicated account numbers to individual customers, payers, or use cases, ensuring one-to-one matching of incoming funds across SWIFT, ACH, and stablecoin deposits.
By automating identification and reconciliation, Virtual Account Numbers significantly reduce manual effort and operational complexity, particularly for businesses handling high transaction volumes or multiple payment sources.

A More Seamless Payments Experience
Our customer experience remained a key focus throughout 2025. FV Bank has enhanced its payment interface to make sending funds faster, easier, and more intuitive across all supported rails.
Customers can now seamlessly initiate USD payments via domestic wire, ACH, SWIFT, foreign currency deposits, and stablecoin payments through a unified interface, reducing friction and improving operational efficiency.
Leading Stablecoin Innovation: Industry Recognition
2025 marked significant growth in stablecoin transaction volumes across the FV Bank platform. Hundreds of businesses now transact daily through FV Bank, collectively moving millions of dollars in stablecoins.
This momentum reflects a broader shift toward faster, more efficient, and borderless cross-border payments, supported by regulated banking infrastructure.
FV Bank’s leadership in this space was recognized with the Juniper Research Platinum Award for Payment Innovation for our stablecoin direct deposits and payments facility, highlighting its role in building real-world, regulated payment infrastructure that bridges traditional banking and digital assets.
