SGX's new bond issuance platform to shorten settlement to 2 days

The block-chain enabled platform is an SGX-Group-Temasek digital asset venture.

SGX CDP has made available a blockchain-enabled bond issuance platform by Marketnode to market participants.

Borne from an SGX Group-Temasek digital asset venture, Marketnode allows debt issuers to shorten settlement time for new-issue bond offerings to two days.

Marketnode's issuance platform connects debt issues into SGX CDP, and fully eliminates the paper trail with a 60% reduction in settlement time for issuers using the platform.

It is partnered with OCBC Bank, which acted as the sole-dealer of the its first transaction on the platform: a US$100m Euro Commercial Paper on its M Marketnode's direct-to-depository platform.

"This latest automation and digitalisation across the entire bond lifecycle from issuance, clearing, and settlement to asset servicing is a culmination of efforts and alignment of strategic direction from all involved parties to modernise existing processes. Asia has progressed significantly in its digital securities journey since SGX Group’s announcement of its digital bond pilot two years ago," said Kenneth Lai, Head of Global Treasury for OCBC Group in a press statement.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
