VISION & MISSION

RISE is a distributed technology company based in London that is led by a group of highly experienced post-trade industry experts. The group builds the most compelling post-trade solutions so clients are ready to embrace the tokenization economy.

 

Our mission is to optimize post-trade cost, risk, and controls for issuers and investors globally. We build fit-for-purpose solutions for regulated intermediaries, allowing them to establish modernized and distributed infrastructures for traditional asset classes and compliantly integrate  emerging crypto asset classes into investment portfolios.

" The post-trade industry is a data management and trust business involving many legitimate parties that perform different regulated functions and manage different risks - That is why distributed ledgers bring substantial benefits "

 

POST-TRADE SOLUTIONS

Clients’ needs and preferences differ. So we have created a flexible engagement model and see it as vital that we fully explore the opportunity and problem set early on. The  result is an implementation process which allows our clients to move forward with confidence. Our approach follows a stage-gate model enriched with best practises learned across our numerous engagements and implementations:
