DocuTrade - Digitalizing Trade Finance Documentation

Blockchain-Powered Digital Promissory Notes Transform Global Trade Finance in Pioneering Pilot Transaction

SINGAPORE, October 24, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- A groundbreaking trade finance pilot has successfully showcased the transformative power of blockchain technology in modernizing traditional trade financing processes. The pilot transaction, valued at $49,518, enabled the purchase of fabric from China by Alltag und Gerätetechnik GmbH, a Swiss buyer, and was financed by Commodity Polska sp. Z o.o., a Poland-based liquidity provider. This innovative transaction offered the buyer 120-day short-term financing at an interest rate of 5% per annum, using a digitally signed promissory note as collateral.

The documentation process was powered by Yodaplus' DocuTrade™ and the trade finance by XDC Trade Network (XTN)™, both adhering to ICC DSI and MLETR guidelines. The digital promissory note, compliant with ICC standards, was cryptographically signed and transferred to the liquidity provider, with the funds being provisioned through a regulated custodian account in Singapore under Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) regulations. This seamless process allowed the buyer to pay the seller upfront, ensuring both liquidity and security for all parties involved.

Blockchain Innovations and Efficiency
This pilot introduced significant technological advancements, including "invisible wallets," which allowed users to sign and transfer documents without requiring complex blockchain interactions. Additionally, the integration with Propine, a MAS-regulated digital custodian, ensured full compliance with KYC/AML regulations. At the core of this system was a smart contract, acting as a decentralized, trusted intermediary, enabling secure, trustless transactions.The entire process was completed on the XDC network - enterprise-grade, open-source EVM compatible blockchain protocol.

Key Benefits
The pilot demonstrated numerous advantages, including:
Time efficiency: The transaction was completed in less than five minutes.
Cost savings: Minimal fees of just $0.00000033 made this process incredibly cost-effective.
Enhanced security: Blockchain's tamper-proof nature safeguarded the integrity of the digital promissory note and maintained ownership control throughout the transaction.
Liquidity access: Global liquidity providers were able to instantly access funding requests, enhancing liquidity availability and offering a secure, low-risk asset class for financiers.
