Document-anchored settlement for trade finance instruments. Maturity-aware netting groups obligations by settlement date, enabling compression across letters of credit, bills of lading, and documentary collections.
← Back to ProductsTrade finance instruments settle on different timelines — 30, 60, 90, 180 days. Current netting systems ignore maturity dates, forcing separate settlement for each instrument. Trade introduces maturity-aware netting: obligations are grouped by settlement date and compressed together, regardless of the underlying instrument type.
On-chain registration of trade finance documents — letters of credit, bills of lading, invoices, documentary collections. Each obligation links to its originating document hash.
Obligations grouped by maturity bucket (T+30, T+60, T+90, T+180). Multilateral netting applied within each bucket, compressing obligations that settle on the same date.
Full letter of credit lifecycle on-chain — issuance, amendment, presentation, acceptance, settlement. Status transitions enforced at the precompile level with multi-party authorisation.
Where counterparties have opposing obligations across maturity buckets, Trade identifies early settlement opportunities that reduce both parties' exposure without requiring additional liquidity.
Cryptographic verification of trade documents against registered hashes. Prevents duplicate financing and ensures document integrity throughout the settlement lifecycle.
Support for syndicated letters of credit with multiple issuing and confirming banks. Netting across participants in a single LC reduces interbank settlement obligations.
Global trade finance market. Letters of credit alone account for over $2.8 trillion annually. Documentary collections, guarantees, and supply chain finance make up the balance.
Full lifecycle support for irrevocable documentary LCs, standby LCs, and transferable LCs. Multi-bank participation with netting across all parties.
Documents against payment (D/P) and documents against acceptance (D/A) with cryptographic document verification and on-chain status tracking.
