Agant is a UK-based stablecoin issuer building sterling-denominated infrastructure for institutional and business clients. Its GBPA token represents the British pound on blockchain networks and is designed for payments, settlement, treasury operations and on-chain financial applications. The operating company, Agant Finance Limited, was incorporated in Scotland in March 2024.
GBPA and institutional services
Agant describes GBPA as fully backed and redeemable one-for-one for GBP. Its published reserve framework includes high-quality liquid assets, segregated accounts and reserve attestations. These arrangements depend on the issuer, its banking and custody providers, and the applicable redemption terms.
The company lists Ethereum, Base, Solana, Tempo and Arc as supported networks. In September 2026, Agant announced GBPA's availability on Arc through Circle's StableFX. Its services connect bank-held sterling with blockchain wallets for business payment and settlement flows.
Agant's June 2026 partnership with Clear Junction Group established an institutional distribution route for GBPA. Clear Junction Digital handles distribution, while Clear Junction Limited supports fiat payment flows for issuance and redemption, subject to onboarding, due diligence and service availability.
Registration and customer protections
The FCA register lists Agant Finance Limited under reference number 1037671 as registered under the Money Laundering Regulations since February 11, 2026. The register restricts the firm from offering services to retail customers or operating crypto ATMs without prior FCA consent. This registration concerns anti-money-laundering supervision; services in relation to GBPA are not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme or the Financial Ombudsman Service.
Leadership and research
Agant's executive team includes founder and CEO Andrew MacKenzie, co-founder and COO Reuben Blamey, co-founder and CTO Donovan Hare, chief commercial officer Chris Aruliah, chief legal officer Tom Rhodes and money laundering reporting officer Lowri Chapman. Lianne Dodds is listed separately as a board advisor.
The company publishes analysis of stablecoin regulation and financial-crime controls. It submitted written evidence to the House of Lords' 2026 stablecoin inquiry, and Rhodes also gave oral evidence. Official inquiries can be directed through Agant's contact page.
