Problem
Exchange-Traded Product (ETP) creation and redemption processes often rely on costly proprietary systems and disparate communication channels, leading to inefficiencies and increased operational complexity for market participants. The lack of a unified platform hinders seamless interaction between authorized participants (APs), market makers, issuers, custodians, transfer agents, and PT desks.
Solution
ETPLink provides a platform that automates and streamlines the entire ETP primary market transaction lifecycle using distributed ledger technology (DLT). This independent platform offers a single point of access for managing ETP creation and redemption, unifying reference data and workflows for all relevant parties. By eliminating the need for multiple proprietary systems and communication channels, ETPLink enhances transaction efficiency, reduces operational costs, and improves security through an immutable audit trail. The platform is accessible via a web-based user interface or API (FIX or web services).
