Powering the future of finance, together.
About us
The future is accelerating fast. Digital transformation is changing our lives, work and business. While other sectors are evolving, financial markets are slow, fragmented and siloed. What the world needs is a future-facing financial system that can not only cope with this rapid pace of change, but also shape it. At Fnality, we have been speaking and listening to the real users of today’s financial systems. From businesses to banks, there is a clear, collective ambition. They all need a simpler, faster, safer and more resilient system; one that can move and settle money quickly and efficiently, with minimised risk and greater transparency. To make this a reality, we are bringing together a community of passionate people, institutions and partners who have the right mindset with market & technical knowhow. By blending their expertise, creativity and compliance, we have the power to enable a decentralised, distributed financial market infrastructure. Our multidisciplinary team of leaders, innovators and collaborators work in Agile iterations and constantly adapt to new ideas, technologies and challenges. Together, we are creating a network of distributed Financial Market Infrastructures (dFMIs); a collection of next generation payment systems enabling on chain wholesale exchange of value in central bank money. We are passionate about the possibilities this innovation presents. Together we can enable businesses to focus on their future growth, without worrying about the inefficient processes of the past. The future looks even brighter; further interoperability with other DLT systems to support the rapid growth of tokenised markets means even greater benefits in the years to come. By assembling the brightest minds, leveraging the right technology and aligning with the strongest partners, we’re well on our way to achieving our goals. Our journey will not end there though, because we are committed to continual improvement. Iteration and evolution are in our DNA.

Looking back at the recent whitepaper from UBS and JD Risk Solutions about the benefits of DLT for optimising intraday liquidity, one of the key themes is risk reduction. Programmable cash empowers users to implement "payments with logic" based on predetermined conditions. This paves the way for unparalleled levels of automation - leading to decreased liquidity buffers, fewer operational errors, as well as the possibility of real-time treasury optimisation. You can find a summary of the discussion here: https://lnkd.in/e8_i4Z7a

Fnality welcomes the publication of the BoE’s discussion paper on its approach to innovation in money and payments as a valuable vehicle to bring together various payments initiatives. We’re interested to see emerging BoE thinking on wholesale CBDC, and look forward to engaging the BoE given our shared goal to ensure the widespread use of central bank funds to support the digital assets and payments ecosystem. We’re pleased to see the BoE’s ongoing support for the Omnibus Account (of which Fnality is currently the only holder) to deliver reduced credit risk, flexibility to manage intraday liquidity, operation outside RTGS operating hours, as well as potential PvP and DvP settlement. Fnality Payment Systems are compatible and complimentary to any future wholesale CBDC, and we welcome BoE’s continued support for private sector innovation in realising its payments approach. https://lnkd.in/gagfYWrZ

Some interesting news from Germany, as the government-owned bank KfW acts on investor appetite for tokenisation with a new digital bond.
