– Unique partnership leverages CloudMargin’s proven cloud-based collateral management capabilities and Ivno’s Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) Tokenization software
– Empowers better use of balance sheet capabilities through Tokenization of underlying assets
– Instantaneously records and immediately settles Tokenized collateral transactions
– Minimises transfer costs, failures and cash trapped in transit
– Optimises liquidity and liquidity insight
Ivno, the London-based financial markets Tokenization company, and CloudMargin, creator of the world’s first and only collateral and margin management solution native to the cloud, announced a new strategic partnership that leverages Ivno’s distributed ledger technology (DLT) and CloudMargin’s collateral management capabilities. The first-of-its-kind partnership will enable market participants to benefit from minimising transfer costs, settlement failures and cash trapped in transit whilst optimising liquidity via a wide range of Tokenization solutions. It will also deliver significantly improved operational and treasury efficiencies.
The proposition combines Ivno’s DLT Tokenization and CloudMargin’s award-winning cloud-based collateral management platform. Market participants will have the ability to Tokenize cash, cash equivalent and high-quality liquid assets (HQLA) to use for collateral. This approach will give clients the ability to instantaneously record and immediately settle Tokenized asset transactions whilst maintaining a legal look-through to the underlying asset. In addition to optimising operational processes and intraday cash flow, clients will derive further benefit from real-time liquidity insight and the ability to post and receive collateral outside normal banking window cut-offs.
