At Sibos 2026, J.P. Morgan Payments showcased what it sees as the next wave in global money movement: faster cross-border payments, more transparency, and smarter capabilities powered by data and AI.

We highlighted new enhancements designed to help clients move money, information and assets more efficiently while also joining the broader industry conversation on how technologies like AI, real-time payment rails and blockchain are reshaping financial infrastructure.

What’s new

Ahead of the conference, J.P. Morgan Payments announced an expansion of our cross-border offering through the Xpedite Remit solutions suite.
