London, UK - 2 June, 2026 - Agant, an FCA-registered stablecoin issuer building sterling-denominated infrastructure for institutional digital finance, today announces a partnership with Clear Junction Group, a global payments infrastructure provider serving regulated financial institutions and cryptoasset businesses. The partnership, jointly announced at Money2020 in Amsterdam, brings together Agant’s GBPA with capabilities across Clear Junction’s UK entities to provide institutional and business clients with a clear route between fiat GBP and GBPA.

While stablecoin markets have largely developed around the US dollar, sterling remains at the heart of treasury, payment and settlement flows for UK institutions and businesses. This partnership supports that reality with credible infrastructure built for institutional use.

Under the agreement, Clear Junction Digital Limited, the Group’s FCA-registered cryptoasset business, will act as a distribution partner for GBPA, supporting access for eligible institutional financial services and cryptoasset businesses. Where fiat GBP services are required, Clear Junction Limited, the Group’s FCA-authorised electronic money institution, will support the payment flows required for issuance and redemption, subject to onboarding, due diligence, service availability and applicable controls.

GBPA is designed by Agant as a 1:1 sterling-backed stablecoin for institutional and business use, with initial availability expected on Ethereum, Base, Tempo and Solana. Through this partnership, Clear Junction Digital will be able to acquire, use and distribute GBPA to institutional and business clients across domestic and cross-border payments, settlement, corporate treasury, FX and exchange liquidity use cases and more.

Andrew MacKenzie, Founder and CEO at Agant, said:

GBPA is being built to give institutions and businesses access to a sterling-denominated stablecoin designed for practical financial use, ensuring sterling remains relevant as institutional finance becomes increasingly connected to blockchain-based settlement. Working with Clear Junction Digital gives us an institutional access route through an FCA MLRs registered partner with established fiat GBP infrastructure and deep experience serving financial services and cryptoasset businesses.

Teresa Cameron, CEO of Clear Junction, commented:

Clear Junction Group works with licensed financial institutions that need reliable payments infrastructure, strong operational standards and a compliance-first approach. This partnership with Agant is a natural extension of that role. Sterling needs credible infrastructure if it is to play a meaningful role in the next stage of digital settlement. Through this partnership, Clear Junction Digital Limited will support a defined route between fiat GBP and GBPA for eligible institutional clients. Our focus is clear operating flows, robust due diligence and infrastructure that can support real use cases across settlement, liquidity, treasury and payments.

Clear Junction is integrating GBPA into its client offering for eligible institutional and business clients as Agant prepares for its first live issuance.
