Archax to Streamline Post-Trade Activity through R3 Corda Platform Integration

DLT Infrastructure

With Archax looking to provide their future clientele with a comprehensive experience, they have recently announced a partnership with R3 Corda.

This partnership will see Archax benefit from services proffered by R3, as they bring the ability to support DLT based post-trade activities.

Archax has indicated that they will be integrating a private version of the R3 platform into their services. While this is being done in an effort to offer an all-in-one solution, it also makes this solution a more cost & time efficient one.

Commentary

In their released announcement, representatives from each, Archax and R3, took the time to comment. The following is what each had to say regarding the partnership.

Graham Rodford, CEO of Archax, stated,

“Our existing systems and partnerships with firms like Aquis, provide the core functionality for our exchange. R3, with its Corda product, provides the final piece of the puzzle on which we can build a truly revolutionary post-trade solution. Although Archax is blockchain agnostic for digital security issuances, we needed an institutional-grade system for our own post-trade use. R3’s permissioned blockchain solution is already used by leading blue-chip organisations so fits the bill perfectly. This partnership will deliver the blockchain efficiency gains for financial markets that are so often talked about, and we believe will be the first of its kind…The current post-trade process in traditional financial markets is hugely inefficient, with many intermediaries involved. This partnership between R3 and Archax will enable us to revolutionise the current post-trade space, removing friction and streamlining activities to improve efficiency and reduce cost.”

Cathy Minter, CRO of R3, stated,

“Working alongside the world’s leading financial institutions, R3 made a conscious decision to leverage blockchain technology to solve real business problems in both complex and highly regulated markets. Representing assets as tokens on a blockchain platform is one of the most impactful applications of the technology and a key focus for R3, too. Archax, with its experienced team and base in London, is building one of the most credible venues for these tokens and will play a key role in driving institutional adoption. As such, our Corda Enterprise platform is ideally-suited for this project, and we look forward to working together to disrupt and revolutionise how financial markets operate.”
