In a blog post, Ripple emphasized that the current international Business-to-Business (B2B) payment process could be more convenient. At the same time, it acknowledged that it is brimming with potential. Interestingly, <a href="https://thecoinrise.com/russia-mulls-over-stablecoin-legislation-for-cross-border-payments/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">this potential has spurred the Russian government</a> and <a href="https://thecoinrise.com/strike-launches-feature-for-cross-border-payments-into-africa/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Strike</a>, amongst others, to explore the realm of cross-border payments.
Ripple highlighted that SMEs aim to grow their businesses by venturing into global markets. In 2023, Mastercard reported a 50% increase in SMEs conducting international business compared to 2021. This surge significantly impacts the cross-border payment market, which exceeds $17 trillion annually.&nbsp;
Usually, SMEs rely on local and international banks to conduct cross-border payments, but not all regions have robust banking systems. This factor is merely one element influencing the global payment process. Others are liquidity and settlement risks and regional regulations.

The company noted that adhering to regulatory standards is crucial for any financial transaction, especially in the ever-changing crypto world. Ripple praised Ripple Payments because it complies with strict Anti-money Laundering (AML) regulations and Counter-terrorism Financing (CTF) requirements.&nbsp;
This compliance with rules will enable SMEs to engage in international operations with hassles.
