Banking and financial services HSBC and ING have completed a trade finance transaction for agri-food trading company Cargill. The transaction was completed using a single blockchain system. It was a push to boost efficiency in the multi-trillion-dollar funding of international trade.

Back in February, HSBC announced plans in to launch several pilot programs based on existing proof-of-concept (PoC) projects.
