Hecto Financial expands global payment networks, stablecoin settlement first-mover hopes

Hecto Financial is expanding its business base in the global digital-asset payment and settlement market by joining Circle Payments Network and the OpenUSD ecosystem, an analyst note said. The company’s foreign-exchange licence, cross-border partner network and bank transfer network could act as barriers to entry for new players, it said. LS Securities forecast 2026 revenue of 225 billion won, up 20 percent, and operating profit of 26 billion won, up 67 percent.
