The mechanism by which the blockchain operates acts as a pioneering technology that is widely used for data transmission in multiple sectors and across the financial services industry.
The newly inked MOU however is open to other international partners, with an inaugural agreement looking to help improve SMEs' access to capital markets whilst facilitating both secure and transparent post-trade operations. In addition, the initiative is part of an ongoing development and strategy of a new regulatory environment throughout France that aims to enhance the circulation of securities using blockchain technology.

According a recently released statement by the joint partners involved in the MOU: “We wanted to engage collaboratively in order to mount an innovative project with the potential to drive the transformation of the post-trade market. By pooling our strengths in this ground-breaking area, we are focusing on new solutions that will give small and mid-sized companies -- key actors for growth in Europe – easier access to the financing they need.”
