“Can a global fund transaction network become the dominant infrastructure layer for both traditional and tokenised fund distribution at scale?”
Calastone was founded as the world's largest global funds network, connecting fund managers and distributors via automated order routing and settlement infrastructure. Over time it expanded from domestic UK operations to covering 55 countries and 4,000+ clients processing £250 billion monthly. Its most significant recent strategic evolution is into tokenisation of funds through its Tokenised Distribution solution, integrating blockchain infrastructure (Fireblocks/Web3) to enable asset managers to distribute tokenised funds across decentralised ecosystems alongside its traditional network.
