The move will allow Calastone to tap into institutional-scale funds distribution for over 4,500 institutions across 58 markets.<\/p>\n<p>Calastone, which processes over \u00a3250 billion in monthly transactions, will leverage Polygon\u2019s infrastructure to power global money movement. The move expands the blockchain network\u2019s traction, likely to boost the platform\u2019s growth.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>By bringing its solution onchain, the platform seeks to enable asset managers tap into benefits of using blockchain rails. It also means they can do all these while still enjoying the key administrative and compliance features already available to them.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cBy launching tokenized fund share classes on Polygon, Calastone unlocks new pathways for both institutional and retail investors. Asset managers can reach digital-first investor pools globally, while blockchain transparency and automation simplify settlement and reconciliation across jurisdictions,\u201d Polygon said in a blog post.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The integration will benefit Calastone\u2019s network of over 4,500 institutions spread across 58 markets, who can now access faster settlements, lower costs, and programmable efficiency.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>More than that, the integration allows for traditional capital markets to come onchain. <\/p>\n<p>Polygon offers this infrastructure via its public blockchain, whose Rio and Heimdall upgrades mean network speed of up to 5,000 transactions per second. The upgrades also mean instant finality, key metrics Wall Street is keen on as they launch real-world assets onchain and rollout institutional-grade payments solutions.<\/p>\n<p>As well as PoS platform Polygon, the team behind web3 software company Polygon Labs is also helping to develop Agglayer, a unified web of chains.
