Here is some research about the Ripple connection with the Alipay, Ant, Standard Charter:
From Standard Charter Website: “Our strategy is to select the right fintech partners to help us advance financial inclusion, fintech innovation and client experience in Hong Kong. Already, we’re collaborating with the likes of Paykey, Alipay, Wechat and Ripple, and are connected to big players such as Apply Pay and Samsung Pay.”

Douglas Feagin, who is VP of Ant Financial. Says, “And so here’s how the blockchain works. It’s what we call a consortium blockchain and there are four parties to this; there’s AliPay Hong Kong, Standard Chartered, “who’s helping us with the clearance and settlement”, and then G-cash in the Philippines who receive the money and ANT Financial is providing the technology solution.”
