Industry network connectivity for financial institutions

Kaleido Industry Chains are pre-built infrastructure stacks that connect financial institutions to industry blockchain networks such as Swift Ledger, DTCC, Project Agorá and the Canton Network.

Each one packages the node infrastructure, middleware and digital asset capabilities that network requires.Enterprise custody is no longer just about secure storage, it’s about flexibility, control, and confidence.

Every industry network arrives with its own onboarding process, node requirements, contracts, and operating model. Treating each one as a separate project leaves institutions running parallel stacks that share nothing. Industry Chains run on one platform, so each new network builds on the infrastructure you already operate.

Pre-built network stacks
Every component required to participate, from node infrastructure through to application workflows, deployed as one unit.
Onboarding handled end to end
Network registration, credential management, and participant setup managed through the platform rather than assembled by your team.
One architecture across every rail
Payments, securities, public and permissioned networks all run on the same control plane, with the same operational tooling.

Connect to Swift Ledger, DTCC, Project Agorá, The Clearing House, and more

• Join new networks without new infrastructure
• Participate as a member or operator
• Connect to permissioned and public rails
• Onboard new networks through a governed process

What's inside an Industry Chain

Each Industry Chain composes three layers of the Kaleido platform into a single deployable stack, tailored to one network.
‍
• Digital Assets: wallets, keys, policy, lifecycle
• Web3 Middleware: orchestration, indexing, APIs
• Chain Infrastructure: nodes, validators, governance
• Pre-built workflows for each network

One control plane across every network you join

Institutions rarely join one network. They join several, across payments, securities, and jurisdictions, and each one is at a different stage of maturity.

Every Industry Chain plugs into the same underlying platform, so identity, policy, key management, and audit are configured once and apply everywhere. Your operations teams learn one system, and your architecture team maintains one integration into core systems.

Policy, approvals and screening for every network transaction

Network participation does not get its own security model. The same OPA-based policy engine, key management, and approval workflows that govern the rest of your digital asset operations apply to every transaction on every industry network.

Four-eyes approval, transfer limits, transaction screening, and a complete audit trail of on-chain and off-chain activity, configured once and enforced consistently across networks.

Choose a deployment model for your regulatory needs

Data residency, key custody and operational control requirements differ by institution and jurisdiction. Pick the model that matches yours.

• Managed SaaS for the fastest path to production
• On-premise for full control in your data center
• Hybrid to keep signing next to your own HSM
• SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 certified

Frequently asked questions

What your legal, risk, and technology teams may ask.

What is a Kaleido Industry Pack?

An Industry Pack is a pre-built stack that connects a financial institution to a specific industry network. It combines Kaleido's chain infrastructure, Web3 middleware and digital asset layers with the workflows that network runs, so the institution can participate without assembling the components itself.

Which industry networks does Kaleido support?

Industry Chains cover networks including Swift Ledger, DTCC, Project Agorá and the Canton Network, and Kaleido serves as a technology partner to Project Agorá. Networks not listed here can be onboarded through a governed process. Contact us to learn more.

What is the Swift Ledger?

The Swift Ledger is Swift's blockchain-based shared ledger for tokenized cross-border payments. It went live in July 2026 with 17 banks piloting around-the-clock payments using bank-issued tokenized deposits, with final settlement completed through existing systems. Kaleido is a technology partner for the Swift Ledger, and more than 70% of participating banks run on the Kaleido platform. With IBM Consulting, Kaleido offers a tokenized deposit solution for Swift Ledger.

What is Project Agorá?

Project Agorá is a BIS Innovation Hub project that explores how tokenized commercial bank deposits and tokenized wholesale central bank money can settle together on a shared programmable platform, with the goal of improving cross-border payments. Kaleido is a technology partner for Project Agorá, alongside the BIS and more than 40 financial institutions.

What is DTCC's asset tokenization service?

DTCC's tokenization service, offered through its subsidiary The Depository Trust Company (DTC), issues tokenized versions of DTC-custodied securities that carry the same legal rights, economic interest and investor protections as the traditional securities. DTC received an SEC no-action letter in December 2025 covering assets such as Russell 1000 equities, ETFs and US Treasuries, and the tokens can move between traditional and blockchain ecosystems. Kaleido's DTCC Industry Pack connects DTC Participants to the service on a pre-built stack.

What is The Clearing House?

The Clearing House (TCH) is a US payments company owned by large commercial banks. It operates core US payment systems, including CHIPS, the RTP network and ACH, and is building a tokenized deposit network that lets banks clear and settle tokenized deposits with one another, synchronized with the RTP and CHIPS networks.

Can we settle DvP and PvP transactions across industry networks?

Yes. Industry Chains use Kaleido's Interop Hub to orchestrate Delivery versus Payment (DvP) and Payment versus Payment (PvP) settlement across supported networks, including Canton. Each settlement can also coordinate with off-chain ledgers and settlement rails, so the on-chain and traditional legs of a transaction complete together.

Can we use our own HSM or key management?

Yes. Industry Chains integrate with enterprise HSMs and existing key management systems, or you can use Kaleido-managed wallets. Components connect through standard interfaces, so you can replace individual layers over time.

How long does it take to join a new industry network?

Because the stack is pre-built, institutions can move from onboarding to live transactions in weeks rather than months. Actual timelines also depend on each network's own onboarding requirements.
