Ripple Expands Into Corporate Treasury Market With $1 Billion GTreasury Acquisition

Blockchain company Ripple is expanding its presence in corporate finance with the announcement of a $1 billion acquisition of GTreasury, a globally recognized leader in treasury management systems. The deal signals Ripple’s growing role in financial technology beyond cross-border payments.

Expanding Access to the Global Corporate Treasury Market

According to Ripple, the acquisition will provide a direct entry into the multi-trillion-dollar corporate treasury market, giving the company access to some of the largest and most established enterprises. 

Chief Executive Officer Brad Garlinghouse noted on X that the $1 billion transaction places Ripple within the $120 trillion corporate treasury payments market. He added that recent years have shown payments to be the most practical and impactful use of blockchain and cryptocurrency, which aligns with Ripple’s founding mission to modernize outdated financial systems that tie up large amounts of capital and create inefficiencies.

Garlinghouse noted that combining Ripple’s blockchain technology with GTreasury’s decades of experience serving leading global brands will help chief financial officers (CFOs) manage a range of assets, including stablecoins and tokenized deposits. He added that the partnership will also allow more efficient utilization of idle capital through access to repo markets provided by prime broker Hidden Road.

Operational Overview of Ripple’s GTreasury Deal

GTreasury offers treasury management systems that assist Fortune 500 companies in managing liquidity and risk. Under this deal, its system will be integrated into Ripple’s growing range of financial tools.

Other key details to know about the transaction and how it will operate

• Clients will be able to manage cash and digital assets in real time, optimizing liquidity and improving efficiency across treasury operations.
• Ripple plans to provide 24/7 cross-border payment services at competitive rates, addressing inefficiencies in traditional payment systems.
• The partnership will help clients unlock idle capital by connecting to the global repo market through Hidden Road.
• The transaction is subject to regulatory approval and is expected to close in the coming months.

Strengthening Ripple’s Broader Expansion

Meanwhile, prior to this deal, Ripple had acquired prime broker Hidden Road and stablecoin platform Rail, making GTreasury its third acquisition in 2025. 

The company’s efforts to expand its ecosystem are evident in the growth of its U.S. dollar stablecoin, launched last year. Its supply has surpassed $840 million across the XRP Ledger and Ethereum networks. Integrating this digital asset with GTreasury’s treasury systems is expected to enhance Ripple’s capacity to serve major corporations that are increasingly adopting digital assets in their financial operations.
