Ripple executives are positioning the firm’s latest acquisition as a major turning point in merging blockchain technology with global corporate finance. Chief Executive Officer Brad Garlinghouse and other executives shared their views on Oct. 16 following Ripple’s $1 billion purchase of GTreasury, a move that marks the company’s entry into the $120 trillion corporate treasury payments market. The acquisition reinforces Ripple’s strategy to modernize enterprise payments and liquidity systems, underscoring its view that blockchain is central to solving long-standing inefficiencies in global finance.
Garlinghouse stated: “Today, Ripple is breaking into the $120T corporate treasury payments market with the $1B acquisition of GTreasury.” He emphasized:
The opportunity is here, and we’re diving right in. It’s happening!
“The past few years have reminded this industry why payments, first and foremost, is THE primary use case for crypto and blockchain. Payments are where Ripple first started for exactly these reasons – the infrastructure is complex, siloed and inefficient, but as we know, perfectly positioned to benefit from decentralized financial technologies,” the Ripple chief explained. “Astounding amounts of cash are trapped in outdated payments systems, creating friction, unnecessary costs, and barriers to entering new markets. GTreasury has been serving some of the most well known brands for decades – and now together with Ripple, we’ll be able to help CFOs manage all their assets, include stablecoins, tokenized deposits, etc at scale around the world, as well as put their idle capital to work with repo markets via Hidden Road.”
Reece Merrick, senior executive officer and managing director for Ripple’s Middle East and Africa (MEA) region, commented: “We’re thrilled to announce the $1 billion acquisition of GTreasury, the global leader in treasury management systems! This is a massive leap into the multi-trillion dollar corporate treasury market.”
President of Ripple, Monica Long, emphasized the partnership’s scale and ambition, stating: “I’m excited for Ripple and GTreasury to help corporates move money around the world faster, cheaper, 24/7/365, and actively manage and grow their money through safe, more efficient solutions. It’s the Ripple platform put to work at the global corporate scale.” The executive opined:
The opportunity to unlock trillions $ in trapped capital for corporates is huge and ambitious and… did I say exciting!? Here we go.
Ripple’s official statement described GTreasury as a global leader in treasury management systems and said the acquisition will integrate Ripple’s blockchain infrastructure with GTreasury’s cash forecasting, compliance, and risk management tools. This transaction follows Ripple’s earlier 2025 purchases of Hidden Road and Rail, strengthening its position in digital asset infrastructure and expanding its footprint in enterprise finance.
