Kaiko joins Canton Foundation’s tokenized collateral workstream
Hi everyone,
Kaiko has joined the Canton Foundation’s Collateral Sub-Committee.
Tokenized collateral already works in pilots. In February, Canton’s working group completed the first cross-border intraday repo using tokenized gilts. The next step is getting CCPs and FMIs to accept tokenized assets as collateral and margin.
Eligibility checks, haircuts, margin calls, and substitutions all start with a price, so getting there needs pricing data that every counterparty trusts.
We’re bringing Kaiko Data On-Ramp and Kaiko Connect to the workstream. Kaiko Data On-Ramp puts licensed data on Canton, such as Bloomberg’s evaluated pricing and NCFX’s FX benchmarks, while each provider keeps control of its IP. Kaiko Connect links FIX, SWIFT/ISO 20022 and APIs to onchain settlement and collateral workflows.
