Archax Partners with BondEvalue
Sep 28, 2022
28 September 2022 – London, Singapore – Archax and BondEvalue today announced a strategic partnership to deliver digital solutions for the ownership, trading and custody of fractional fixed income products using blockchain technology.
Archax, the first and only FCA regulated digital securities exchange, broker and custodian, will enable their clients to access investment opportunities on BondEvalue’s regulated platform, the BondbloX Bond Exchange (BBX), a blockchain-based bond exchange which allows investors to conduct electronic trading of fractional bonds (BondbloX) from as low as $1,000. Archax will provide access to the fractional bonds on BBX via their broker membership, enabling investors to create a diversified portfolio of institutional grade bonds with transparency and at low cost.
Graham Rodford, CEO and co-founder of Archax, commented “Our partnership with BondEvalue will allow a wider group of investors access to investments which were historically only available to larger institutions because of a high entry threshold. It enables us to continue to lead and develop future market solutions supported by our focus on disrupting capital markets using blockchain technology innovation. The partnership is a further step towards our buildout for Asia-Pacific as we start to scale Archax globally.”
Dr. Rahul Banerjee, CEO and co-founder of BondEvalue, added: “The Archax team are leaders in the regulated DLT space, and we are excited to work with them in democratising the bond market. Working together, we will form a ‘bond-bridge’ between Europe and Asia.”
