Financial Times reports that the Autorité des Marchés Financiers, the main French securities watchdog, has recently licensed Setl, a heavyweight fintech startup that is poised to disrupt the current settlement system with its Blockchain-powered solution. This approval is of significant importance since now the company has the ability to connect to T2S, a major European securities settlement engine.
OpenCSD platform is the first commercial project of Setl that is already expected to go live next year. The London-based startup, which has the former chairman of Barclays on its team, earlier claimed that it had come up the very first Blockchain platform that can be adopted by financial institutions without the need to develop their own technology.
