Standard Chartered has partnered with Broadcom Inc. to modernise its infrastructure, creating a secure and resilient private cloud foundation that ensures stability and safety across 54 global markets.
John Sharratt, global head of Technology and Infrastructure, Standard Chartered, said, “Standardising a fully virtualised software-defined infrastructure across our global operations enables Standard Chartered to meet the evolving demands of our clients while strengthening our technological core with the responsiveness, resilience and regulatory compliance that global banking demands. Our client-centric, long-term investments with global service providers, such as Broadcom, strengthen our ability to deliver always-on banking services in an ever-changing and dynamic landscape, while accelerating innovation with a secure private cloud foundation.”

The partnership involves Standard Chartered realigning its infrastructure to a fully integrated private cloud environment using VMware Cloud Foundation, which embeds zero-trust security and claims to deliver uninterrupted availability.
Modernising Standard Chartered’s infrastructure, focused on its core banking, payments, and digital services, strengthens its technology platform for sustainable growth and client-centric innovation. The initiative also anchors it on a secure and resilient private cloud foundation.
“Global financial institutions require infrastructure that combines resilience, security and operational simplicity at scale,” said Krish Prasad, senior vice president and general manager, VMware Cloud Foundation Division, Broadcom. “Standard Chartered is at the forefront of digital banking innovation, and we are proud to support their journey toward a highly automated, AI-driven, modern private cloud with VMware Cloud Foundation,” he added.
