Engineering a smarter financial world

Tokenovate is a UK-based financial services technology company driving the evolution of decentralised financial market infrastructure. By leveraging blockchain, tokenisation, and smart contract technologies, we are enabling more efficient post-trade lifecycle event management of workflows for OTC traded derivatives.
What we do

Decentralised financial market infrastructure

Derivatives are used for price and risk management of physical and cash settled assets. These assets often flow within their individual supply chains and novate through multiple contractual, technical and commercial states, resulting in fragmented data and workflow siloes. Tokenovate combines programmable software that controls all events and responses with a highly scalable and cost efficient distributed ledger technology (DLT) to unify and automate the end-to-end derivative trade events lifecycle. Tokenovate builds on ISDA® CDM™ and accelerates the digitisation and automation of smart digital contracts.
Tokenovate is building the next generation decentralised financial market infrastructure (dFMI), optimised for asset class agnostic derivatives. Our deep-tech solution drives transformative product innovation and operational efficiency for key players in capital markets. The secure and scalable cloud-based software platform 
upgrades and automates the management of trade lifecycle events through tokenisation and blockchain-powered smart contracts, from asset sourcing, custody, collateral mobility, management and settlement to asset servicing and reporting.
The Platform
Our platform is a secure, scalable and modular multi-tenant cloud-based software solution that integrates with existing infrastructure via APIs to deliver continuous improvements.

How we do it

Driving innovation, not disruption

The transformation journey to upgrade current financial market infrastructure is not about disrupting the existing model - it’s about continuous and iterative innovation. And during this process, it’s essential to fully respect the legal and economic contexts and fuse them with smart technology.

At Tokenovate, we support this journey by combining four key components:
Smart Contracts
Script-based conditional logic statements that execute automatically, reducing errors drastically.
CDM
Embedding industry standards through CDM, to ensure consistency and compliance.
Blockchain
DLT will become critical infrastructure, increasing transparency and operational efficiency.
Cloud
Modular architecture delivers performance, robust security and scalable solutions.
