Ripple Exec: “We are Delivering the Level of Bank Security Institutions Have Been Asking for”

• Ripple says institutional adoption of a projected $16T tokenized economy requires more than storage.
• The company highlights its custody architecture using HSMs, FIPS-certified hardware, and SOC 2 Type II / ISO 27001 compliance.
• Ripple executives emphasize that trust and security are the foundation of institutional tokenization.

Ripple has emphasized the growing need for institutional-grade security as the global tokenization market is projected to reach an estimated $16 trillion. In a new statement published on social media, the company said that institutions entering the tokenized economy require robust infrastructure that goes well beyond basic asset storage.

According to Ripple, resilience, compliance, and security must underpin the next wave of institutional adoption. “To capture the value of a projected $16 trillion tokenized economy, institutions need more than just storage. They need resilience,” the company said.

Ripple said this architecture allows institutions to protect digital assets without compromising on performance or operational speed, an important requirement for large-scale financial activity.

Ripple also underscored that meaningful institutional participation in digital assets requires adherence to internationally recognized standards. The company highlighted its compliance with SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001,  two of the most respected frameworks for information security and operational controls.

“Legitimate integration with the global financial system requires verification,” Ripple stated, adding that these certifications ensure infrastructure is both powerful and compliant.

Ripple Executive Says Trust Is the Foundation of Institutional Adoption

Reece Merrick, Ripple’s Managing Director for the Middle East and Asia, echoed the company’s message in a follow-up comment. He said the team is focused on setting a new benchmark for institutional-scale digital asset custody.

“In this space, trust isn’t a ‘nice to have’ — it’s the foundation of everything,” Merrick said. He added that Ripple aims to deliver bank-level security, regulatory alignment, and seamless integration, addressing exactly what institutions have been seeking.

Merrick described Ripple’s custody infrastructure as enterprise-grade, built not only to support today’s needs but to anchor the future of tokenized value. “Whatever the future of value looks like, we’re building the infrastructure that can securely support it at scale,” he said.

Positioning as a Backbone for Institutional Tokenization

Ripple concluded that its security and compliance frameworks form the resilient backbone needed for the digital asset industry to grow with institutional confidence.

As tokenized assets expand into global financial markets, the company believes the next phase of adoption will be built on systems that combine robust protection with seamless operational performance.
