Onbrane Partners with Agora to Deliver a Universal Debt Issuance Platform Across Maturities

Table of Contents

Paris, February 24, 2026 – Onbrane today announced a strategic partnership with Agora Digital Capital Markets Ltd, extending its issuance capabilities from short to medium and long term debt markets.

Through the partnership, Agora’s technology will be integrated into Onbrane’s CP/CD negotiation, issuance and data analytics platform, adding advanced documentation and structuring capabilities — including management of terms, pricing, syndication commitments, drawdown schedules and covenant monitoring. The resulting architecture creates a data framework capable of supporting both conventional issuance processes and emerging digital asset formats.

The platform primarily supports treasury teams with a unified, structured environment to originate, negotiate and manage debt instruments across maturities — strengthening control, data consistency and lifecycle visibility while reducing operational friction.

At the same time, financial intermediaries will benefit from streamlined execution workflows and structured data exchange that reduce administrative burden and enhance distribution capabilities. For asset managers, the impact is equally structural: real-time visibility into the issuance process and enhanced execution and allocation capabilities, which improves monitoring, operational efficiency and readiness for tokenised formats.

The partnership follows the recent appointment of Charlie Berman, Founder and CEO of Agora, to Onbrane’s Board of Directors, reinforcing governance-level alignment between the two organisations and supporting long-term strategic coordination.

Pascal Lauffer, Co-founder and CEO of Onbrane commented:

“Accessing capital through debt markets remains more complex than it should be. Both Onbrane and Agora have been addressing this challenge within our respective segments. By combining our hands-on market expertise and technologies, we are able to further close the gaps in debt financing workflows, while answering three critical demands of our industry:

First, to permanently remove structural inefficiencies from debt origination;

second, to help unify Europe’s fragmented markets within a single, standardised, data-consistent infrastructure aligned with the Capital Markets Union; and

third, to provide a DLT-ready front end delivering real-time matched data — powering real-time settlement and fast-tracking tokenisation initiatives such as Pythagore and Pontes.

Charlie Berman, Co-founder and CEO of Agora said:

“Market traction for the digitisation of physical and financial assets has reached a clear inflection point. Our collaboration with Onbrane is a deliberate response to the Treasurer’s demand for consolidation: the market is weary of fragmented systems and seeks a single, sophisticated point of access for diverse asset classes. By integrating Onbrane’s excellence in CP and money markets with ADML’s expertise in term fixed income, we are replacing workflow friction with a unified, powerful solution set that spans the entire maturity spectrum.
