Advantages to using DSG

Cost Efficiency

By leveraging blockchain technology, DSG significantly reduces the need for traditional financial intermediaries. This reduction in overhead costs allows issuers to list their securities more affordably while maintaining the highest levels of service and security. See listing fees.

Transparency and Trust

Transparency is key in the digital securities market. DSG provides a fully transparent platform where all transactions and holdings are visible to authorised parties. If DSG should cease to exist, the Digital Securites (and their property rights) live on. This transparency builds trust with investors and fosters a secure trading environment.

Innovative Technology

DSG's cutting-edge technology supports a variety of digital securities, including equities, bonds, and funds. Our robust infrastructure ensures that your listings are not only secure but also future-proof, ready to adapt to the evolving market landscape.

Compliance support

Our platform is built with compliance at its core. DSG adheres to the strictest regulatory standards, ensuring that all listings meet legal requirements. This gives both issuers and investors peace of mind, knowing their transactions are secure and compliant.

Offering Process at DSG

Nominated Advisors

Pre-Listing Assessment

Our team will liase with your Nominated Advisors to conduct a thorough assessment of your securities to ensure they meet our criteria. This includes evaluating the legal structure and regulatory compliance.

Digital Onboarding

After an initial setup fee, we help you complete the digital onboarding process using our secure platform. This step involves submitting your documentation, providing detailed information about your securities, and undergoing identity verification. Once onboarding is complete, our technical team will assist you in tokenising your securities. This involves creating digital representations of your assets using blockchain technology, ensuring they are ready for issuing.
