Decentralized technologies
A blockchain natively allows market players to finally have a single data source, common to all. This new data recording structure has also proven its tremendous robustness over time.
We are aware of the hurdles still preventing rapid and massive adoption of blockchain technology. We have therefore designed a few stages implementation roadmap that takes into consideration the maturity of the ecosystem and the technology it requires.
Deep data management
The analysis and proper use of data is the key to optimization and efficiency in all industries.
The Onbrane platform, by bringing together all market participants in the same place, has the potential to gather a large amount of useful information concerning the securities created on the platform. This market data, combined with public data is a resource that will enable us to provide users with extremely useful tools to manage their business.
Our solution 4 pillars
The 5 things you need to remember before leaving
Beyond the difficulties for companies to finance themselves in the short term, COVID 19 has highlighted the global Commercial Paper market’s sensitive points: lack of digitalization, lack of security, and various liquidities. Onbrane’s vocation is to respond to this and become an essential communication tool in managing the next crisis.
A virtual place for all debt actors
Onbrane is an OTC platform designed with and for issuers, intermediaries and investors. Unlike its competitors, Onbrane caters to every market actor, connects liquidity pools globally and leverages existing ecosystems to issue potentially any kind of debt.
A Full STP process
Full STP (Straight-through processing) allows fast and smooth information circulation – no manual errors; no time wasted. The Onbrane platform natively has the potential to be interconnected with any third-party software.
Leverage Data
Behind all the talk about the importance of data lies a rather simplistic truth: it is essential for market players to know what is happening to make informed decisions. Actors of financial markets should always be in a know about the opportunities, in terms of markets, currencies, maturity, rates…
Growth of your ESG capabilities
ESG integration in the issuance of debt products is generally associated with much confusion about how to proceed in practice. Integrating ESG variations into debt products is becoming increasingly trendy. That's why Onbrane wants to help issuers and investors explore the world of possibilities for linking ESG KPIs to debt products.

Your most asked questions
Our answers make us unique
Intermediaries play an essential role. They guarantee fluidity, liquidity and ensure market development :
– Intermediaries can seek this liquidity or even hold the security for a period of time.
– They attract new issuers and investors.
– The time savings offered by intermediaries are considerable. While an issuer only deals with 4 or 5 intermediaries, a dealer or broker has more than 200 investors behind it. Knowing investors, their interests and their capacity require expertise and time that not all issuers necessarily have.
– They advise and negotiate the most adapted price.
The answer is quite simple: All currencies!
Thanks to our connection to the current clearers, you can now trade in the currency of your choice (EUR, USD, GBP, AUD, NZD, CNY, SEK, etc.).
