The Client
Our client is a global provider of illiquid asset management streamlining trading and operations for Banks, Corporates and Insurance companies. Their system digitizes three asset classes – Trade Finance, Insurance and Loans. The idea behind the platform, in essence, is to improve working capital for its clients. Since its inception in 2016, the company’s trade volume has exceeded $100B.
The Solution
We started with MVPs for Supply Chain and Entitlements to focus on core functionalities to stay on track and make better development decisions in the long run. We chose Azure for the main platform as well as for our client’s separate blockchain utility for digitizing manual assets and decentralizing trading. We also developed a White Label Solution enabling corporate clients to deliver the platform’s services to their own clients with new branding.
New log-in capability with a single sign-in;
Account Receivables marketplace for corporate debt;
Entitlements portal managing user permissions and platform access;
Post-trade Settlement module managing incoming and outgoing payments;
Supply Chain Financing where funders finance suppliers and buyer receivables;
Trade Credit Insurance marketplace where IPs request insurance quotes from multiple ICs.
Results
In a time of unprecedented market turbulence, we built an agile platform with intuitive interface, in which one legal agreement allows large-scale transactions with all parties. This next-generation network makes it as simple as a few clicks to safely buy or sell assets in multi-million-dollar Trade Finance deals. To ensure continued growth, our development plan over the next year will focus on offering more trading protocols and available currencies as well as integrating new asset classes.
