Tether, the company behind the world’s largest stablecoin USDT USDT$0.9992, said Thursday it has invested in Parfin, a Latin American crypto firm that builds digital asset infrastructure for institutions.

The firms did not disclose details of the investment.

The investment is part of Tether’s larger push to deepen its footprint in emerging markets and expand the real-world use of USDT for cross-border payments and asset tokenization. The partnership also signals that Tether, long seen primarily as a retail-focused stablecoin issuer for emerging market users, is now pushing deeper into the institutional layer of crypto finance.

Parfin offers tools for custody, tokenization, and blockchain-based settlement aimed at financial institutions. Its services are tailored for use cases like trade finance, credit markets, and institutional payments, areas where Tether wants to see broader adoption of USDT as a settlement asset.
