“CryptoBLK is proud and honored to take part in this synergistic FinTech collaboration, where an enthusiastic financial institution (Novamondo) meets a competent technology company (CryptoBLK),” shared by Dr Duncan Wong, CEO of CryptoBLK. “Novamondo and CryptoBLK are sharing the same mission of transforming the trade finance industry with the DLT. With the valuable domain input from Novamondo, we are confident to jointly develop cutting-edge trade finance solutions that promote digital transformation and workflow optimization for the trade finance industry.”
Upon the signing of the MOU, CryptoBLK will provide technical support in Novamondo’s early adoption of DLT to underwrite risk and scale up the business. DLT knowhow and trade finance insights will also be exchanged for development of DLT solutions that provide simplified, transparent and secure trade finance workflow and processes.
