According to TechFlow, citing a report from Fortune, Swedish digital bank and payment services company Klarna has announced a partnership with an exchange, planning to raise short-term funds denominated in stablecoins from institutional investors through the exchange's digital infrastructure. This will provide Klarna with a new funding channel denominated in USDC stablecoin, in addition to its existing traditional funding sources, which include user deposits, long-term loans, and short-term commercial paper. This approach will help Klarna directly access more institutional investors and obtain a stable funding source similar to the US dollar. Klarna stated that this move is the "first step" in exploring how digital assets and traditional financing channels can work together, and it will continue to advance its crypto and stablecoin-related business layout for consumers and merchants, with plans to continue this initiative through 2026.
