The investment addresses rapid shifts in market structure and growing client demand for governed, transparent, straight-through workflows across lending and financing in both traditional and digital assets.

Together, EquiLend and Digital Prime Technologies will support integrated trading, post-trade and data workflows, initially focusing on institutional financing for tokenized assets, digital securities, and crypto via Digital Prime’s Tokenet network.
