More than 100 of the world’s leading organizations across banking, insurance, energy & utilities, healthcare, TMT, retail & CPG, transportation, use UST’s portfolio of solutions in blockchain.

Various analyst firms have consistently recognized UST’s leadership in blockchain since 2017. Most recently, UST was also recognized for distinction in blockchain by ISG with a Top Case Study Award for Digital Excellence, highlighting the company’s engagement with a leading Spanish multinational commercial bank to transform the international payments experience by deploying blockchain-based solutions. The bank launched its mobile-based application that enables their end customers to complete international transactions in hours, even minutes – whereas the same transactions previously took two to three working days to complete. In just four to five clicks, the customer can enter the amount to be transferred, select a recipient and exchange rate, and confirm the transaction. UST played a significant role in delivering this solution and integrating the platform.
