Market infrastructure & asset managers

Move the cash as fast as the asset.

For depositories, clearing houses, custodians and asset managers. Settle the cash leg of collateral, securities and fund movements in seconds, so participants hold less in reserve and your platforms stay in place.

New possibilities.

The work you want to do

The asset moves in seconds. The cash waits.

Tokenised collateral, securities and fund shares can move in seconds. The cash still settles over wire, ACH or a separate cash platform, often a day later. In that gap participants carry settlement risk, borrow during the day to cover it and reconcile both sides afterwards. Each new network adds another ledger the others cannot see.

Participants release collateral and cash when they need it, fund less of the gap and give their auditors and supervisors one record for each movement.

Scope the asset platform and cash connection together. Frame does not replace your depository, clearing, custody or trading platforms. Both-or-neither delivery applies where the asset and cash share a configured venue; evidence alone does not establish legal finality.

How the workflow comes together

An instruction identifies the asset and cash obligations. Frame checks the applicable policy inputs; the chosen platforms report execution. The resulting evidence retains both sides.

01 / Your platform and participants

Define the asset and cash legs

Supply the asset movement, the cash obligation, the participants and the configured asset and cash endpoints.

02 / Frame Rules

Each participant applies its own policy

Frame checks each participant’s rules inside its own instance, under keys it holds. Nobody sees another participant’s rules or books.

03 / Frame Settle and Frame Proof

Settle and seal the evidence

The configured platforms execute. Frame seals the decisions and reported results into a record participants, auditors and supervisors check on their own machines.

Read the full workflow

Your exchange records an asset obligation and its corresponding cash payment under one settlement reference. Trade capture, custody, the asset venue and the cash connection remain in place. Frame Rules checks the applicable cash instruction and supplied release inputs. The chosen asset-side and cash-side platforms execute under their own arrangements and report their outcomes separately. Frame Proof links the shared reference, cash-side decision and reports so a counterparty can inspect the record. The asset type and venue must be scoped; this illustration does not establish universal securities coverage, custody, or atomic delivery across different rails.

A useful first conversation

Start with the systems and records you already have

Start inside your own walls, with two of your own entities or ledgers, and use sample records for the first demonstration.

  • The asset platform and the cash leg you want to connect
  • Participants and the entities or ledgers involved
  • Where cash and collateral wait today, and who funds the gap
  • Each participant’s release policy
  • The evidence your auditors and supervisors need

Before we talk

A clearer picture.

Does Frame hold our participants’ cash or collateral?

No. Frame holds no money and no keys. Cash and assets stay with your platforms, custodians and banks.

Do all participants have to join before we start?

No. Frame works for one institution on its own. Start with two of your own entities or ledgers and bring participants in when you choose.

Which forms of cash can settle the cash leg?

Tokenised deposits, regulated payment tokens and fiat payments, depending on your jurisdiction and the connections you configure.

How does this help our balance sheet?

When the receiving side can check a signed record instead of waiting for cash to land, participants need less intraday funding and less cash parked in advance. The result depends on your obligations, participants and connected systems.
