Big step forward today in bringing institutional capital onchain with the launch of the @Chainlink Automated Compliance Engine (ACE) As a unified & modular standard for onchain compliance, Chainlink ACE enables the issuance of compliant digital/tokenized assets with real-time policy enforcement, secure identity management, and streamlined monitoring/reporting Chainlink ACE was built together with: - @ApexGlobalGroup: Global financial services provider that services over 3.4 trillion in assets and provides institutional-grade tokenization solutions - @GLEIF: Organization overseeing the only globally adopted & mandated G-20 initiated Legal Entity Identifiers (LEIs) standard, which enables reliable identification of legal entities in financial transactions - @ERC3643Org: Non-profit organization dedicated to standardizing the tokenization market through ERC-3643, a permissioned token standard Chainlink ACE extends existing financial systems and market infrastructure for identity and compliance data to blockchains and tokenized assets, enabling institutions to automate policy enforcement for tokenized assets This unlocks complex, compliance-focused financial transactions across multiple digital/tokenized assets, jurisdictions, counterparties, and execution environments, including public and private blockchains, while maintaining privacy of sensitive data In addition to being integrated with GLEIF’s verifiable Legal Entity Identifier (vLEI) and Apex’s & ERC-3643 Association’s permissioned token standard for tokenized asset issuance Chainlink ACE was also recently used in the Hong Kong Monetary Authority’s e-HKD+ program with ANZ Bank and Fidelity International This enabled the secure exchange of ANZ Bank’s ADC’s stablecoin with Hong Kong’s e-HKD+ CBDC, which was later used to facilitate the purchase of a Fidelity International tokenized fund Bringing capital markets onchain, one oracle at a time
