Products & Services
Settlement
With Seturion’s settlement solution, we create a seamless bridge between today’s ‘off-chain’ trading and ‘on-chain’ settlement.
We make the settlement of securities transactions faster, available 24/7 and more cost-efficient. Your assets remain in your own wallet infrastructure. No central securities depository (CSD) is needed. We support public and selected private chains, fiat cash settlement and on-chain cash options.
Issuance
With Seturion’s issuance services, you can tokenize your assets and bring them on-chain.
You can alternatively choose to use your own infrastructure. Additionally, you can offer your infrastructure to other Seturion users.
Registrar
Seturion provides registrar services, maintains accurate ownership records and lifecycle events.
Once tokenized, your assets can be seamlessly traded and settled across borders and ecosystems.

Redefining Capital Markets with a Unique Approach
Seturion is not ‘just another digital asset project’ – we’re market-driven, truly European, and built for real business impact.
Market-Driven
As an industry utility, Seturion delivers solutions to real-world challenges. We follow market demand with uncompromising dedication, offering significant and sustainable benefits to our clients – and guiding them into the future of Europe’s capital markets.
Open Ecosystem
Seturion focuses on open architecture and interoperability. This approach allows issuers, tokenization platforms, crypto securities registrars, trading venues, trading participants, custody banks and securities service providers to connect and work together.
Truly European
Built with Europe at its core, Seturion’s services are designed to connect today’s fragmented markets. By removing cross-border barriers and creating pan-European business opportunities, Seturion works to unify Europe’s capital markets.
Easy to connect
Low effort to get started: Trading participants can leverage existing trading standards and connections to their trading venues. Trading venues can list and trade tokenized assets just by connecting to Seturion – no extra DLT license required. Significantly reducing regulatory and operational burden.
Safe & Regulated
Seturion meets the highest regulatory standards – audited, EU licensing underway, and built for institutional-grade operations. As part of the 160-year-old Boerse Stuttgart Group, regulatory compliance, trust, and safety are at the core of everything we do.
Blockchain & Cash Leg agnostic
Seturion leverages public or private blockchains, meeting clients where they are. The same applies to the payment leg: We offer settlement in central bank money (for easier implementation, safety and liquidity) or in stablecoins. In short, we deliver exactly the infrastructure that you need.
