CME, Google Cloud pilot 24/7 tokenized trading for capital markets

CME Group, a leading derivatives marketplace, is collaborating with Google Cloud to pilot asset tokenization and enhance capital market efficiency. 

The two groups completed initial integration and testing of Google Cloud’s Universal Ledger, a distributed ledger designed for traditional financial institutions.

GCUL is a programmable, distributed ledger tailored for financial institutions. It simplifies account and asset management and facilitates secure transfers on a private, permissioned network. 

A shift towards tokenization

Tokenization involves converting rights to an asset into a digital token on a blockchain or distributed ledger. This process can apply to various assets, including stocks, bonds, or commodities, enabling more efficient and secure transactions. 

A distributed ledger is a digital system for recording transactions where each participant holds a synchronized copy, enhancing transparency and security.

This technology aims to streamline processes like collateral management, margin calculations, settlements, and fee payments, supporting the financial industry’s shift toward continuous, 24/7 trading. 

Later this year, CME Group and Google Cloud plan to conduct direct testing with market participants, with the goal of launching new services in 2026. 

This initiative reflects a broader trend of traditional financial institutions exploring blockchain technology to improve efficiency and reduce costs.
