ADI Foundation and SettleMint bring capital markets tokenization to the UAE
Summary
ADI Foundation and SettleMint announced a strategic partnership to deploy a regulated digital securities infrastructure on ADI Chain that supports tokenization under the ADGM framework. ADI provides a compliance-ready Layer-2 blockchain as the immutable settlement ledger while SettleMint supplies its Digital Asset Lifecycle Platform (DALP) and ERC-3643 token implementation for creation, on-chain recording, post-trade servicing and full lifecycle management. The combined architecture connects issuance, trading, settlement and custody within a single framework to reduce coordination and cross-jurisdictional friction for institutional adopters. The solution starts with equity tokenization but is designed to support other tokenized securities subject to regulatory approvals and aims to give institutions a direct pathway from intent to regulated on-chain execution.
