Blockchain Adoption Accelerates as SwissChain and Amundi Launch Tokenized Financial Solutions

SwissChain Holding SA has taken a significant step in the digitalization of corporate instruments by implementing its share certificates on a blockchain infrastructure.

This innovative measure promises not only to modernize the traditional Swiss financial system but also to improve efficiency and transparency in corporate governance.

SwissChain Holding digitizes participation certificates on blockchain infrastructure

SwissChain Holding SA, a Geneva-based company, has announced that it has digitized its share certificates (“Bons de participation”) by recording ownership transfers on a blockchain infrastructure. This initiative leverages distributed ledger technology (DLT) to modernize a traditional Swiss corporate instrument while maintaining established shareholder protection and corporate governance standards.

The tokenized participation certificates retain full legal enforceability under Swiss law and are designed to improve the accuracy of ownership records, streamline settlement processes, and strengthen overall corporate documentation. SwissChain oversees a network of specialized subsidiaries in the digital finance sector, including trading and market access infrastructures as well as licensed third-party custodians.

“Solutions for the traceability of agricultural products will certainly help to improve the transparency of the supply chain and strengthen market confidence,” said Mr. Le Viet Binh, Deputy Head of the Office of the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment.

“The tokenized money market fund could initiate a turnaround. Innovation boosts valuations,” analysts said.

Introduction of a blockchain-based platform for tracing agricultural products in Vietnam

On March 21st, the Agrichain platform was unveiled in Ho Chi Minh City. This blockchain-based solution provides traceability for agricultural products.
