Broadridge Financial Solutions has announced that Societe Generale has completed its first digital bond issuance in the United States, using Broadridge’s new tokenisation capability.
The digital bonds were registered by Societe Generale-FORGE, the digital assets subsidiary of Societe Generale.
The firms say the transaction shows how institutions can leverage tokenisation and permissioned blockchain technology to reach the benefits of instant settlement and transparency while adhering to traditional capital markets practices and requirements.
Broadridge and Societe Generale-FORGE used IntellectEU’s Catalyst Blockchain Manager to operate their nodes on the Canton Network.
Horacio Barakat, head of Digital Innovation at Broadridge, notes: “The expansion of tokenisation beyond Treasuries into corporate and structured bonds is an exciting step — one that will help increase the liquidity and utility of these assets across financing and collateral use cases.
“As institutions like Societe Generale embrace this shift to tokenisation, Broadridge is proud to provide the secure, scalable infrastructure to support this innovation.”
