Business Challenge

Each banking operation is provided through the intermediary and depends on its decision. All processes are halted in case of issues with the intermediary’s system. Moreover, the intermediary is weak against external and targeted influence, which could impact the whole negotiation process.

When designing our Syndicated Loan Solution, we aimed to achieve the following:

Decrease the syndication consensus period from weeks to days;
Solve the most critical weak points by getting rid of intermediaries, and removing the central point of failure;
Improve data accuracy;
Evaluate production-readiness of the available Blockchain implementations;
Provide demonstration means for the non-technical audience to better understand how the solution works.

Solution

A Proof of Concept project was created based on Hyperledger / AngularJS, demonstrating a new way of the process handling. The solution merges external ledgers and databases, leveraging synchronization between banks:

A sharable database strengthened against tampering and revision;
Real-time data, transparent and reliable, excluding errors or data duplications;
Equal validation rights, flexible security settings for each party;
Faster workflows and negotiations;
Minimized overhead expenses and mediation activities.
