Tokenising securities: D7 DLT
The set-up is complemented by a Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT)-based architecture to enable seamless tokenisation of securities. The solution was launched as part of the ECB trials conducted in 2024. D7 DLT demonstrated its ability to issue securities on blockchain, handling both securities and central bank digital currency, with a vision to further scale these capabilities in the future.

Operating as market DLT operator – The ECB trials have successfully demonstrated seamless exchanges of cash and securities across diverse use cases, including issuances, collateral management and financing transactions such as centrally cleared intraday repos. This was achieved with native digital issuance of DE, XS and LU ISINs on a digital ledger. For more information, visit the dedciated webpage.
