European Traditional Finance Banks Join Forces for Blockchain-Based Digital Bonds Trading Platform

Apr 4, 2023

By Fredrik Vold | @fredrik-vold

Major European banks SEB and Crédit Agricole have launched: so | bond, a new blockchain-based platform for issuing digital bonds in the traditional financial sector.

The new platform, said to be a “sustainable and open” blockchain, aims to improve efficiency and enable real-time data synchronization across participants, a joint announcement from the two banks on Monday said.
