Zodia Solutions, the institutional digital asset infrastructure platform, and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a global IT services and consulting firm, announced an integration between the TCS BaNCS™ Global Securities Platform and the Zodia Solutions Platform to include digital asset execution and custody capabilities.
The TCS BaNCS Global Securities Platform is a SWIFT-certified, scalable, integrated offering that serves the entire capital markets value chain. Used by leading custodians, investment banks, fund and asset managers, and brokers it helps firms deliver consistent customer experience and service level across markets. Its digital core enables businesses to turn data into actionable insights, KPIs and predictions. The platform supports multiple legal entities, languages, business lines, asset classes, markets, and geographics from a single application.
Banks using TCS BaNCS will be able to offer crypto and tokenised asset services to clients through their existing accounts, infrastructure, and settlement rails. Zodia Solutions provides the underlying digital asset wallet, settlement and orchestration infrastructure, which is deployed entirely within a bank’s own environment. The bank retains the private keys, the custodian relationship, and full governance over its digital asset operations.
The integration of Zodia Solutions on TCS BaNCS platform will bridge traditional settlement conventions with blockchain finality, allowing banks to service digital assets within the same operational framework as conventional asset classes on the platform. TCS BaNCS manages the complete transaction lifecycle, from order instruction to on-chain delivery and reconciliation.
“Financial institutions have moved from whether to how. The question is how to offer digital asset services in production, across institutional client bases, and aligned to existing infrastructure.” said Craig Perrin, Chief Commercial Officer of Zodia Solutions. “Zodia Solutions was built inside Zodia Custody, drawing on the controls and governance of an established institutional custodian. This service integration with TCS BaNCS extends that design to the securities platform that already runs within hundreds of banks. The bank secures the keys, custody sits within its own environment, and the full lifecycle runs through TCS BaNCS.”
As the institutional digital asset infrastructure platform, Zodia Solutions provides the technology, infrastructure and professional services financial institutions need to design, deliver and grow their own digital asset services in regulated environments.
