Anything else you’d like to add / we should have asked?

Join us to learn about a new era of private securities and enjoy networking at the rooftop of Goodman Derrick office with a magnificent view.

For any public or private company, it’s been legal to issue non-paper/electronic/digital shares for decades. Now after the breakout of Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) the company can move equity and loan records to a blockchain-based registry and benefit from the latest developments within the capital markets infrastructure.

An issuance of securities in a digital form on distributed ledger allows private companies and investors to utilise the benefits of public capital markets with even greater efficiency – enhanced liquidity of private securities, 24/7 market access, near real-time settlement, automated dividends/interest payments, embedded compliance, cryptographically secure digital wallets, cost reduction and easy follow-on rounds.
