Connected Projects

Crédit Agricole appears in the Canton Network ecosystem directory as a financial-institution participant rather than as a validator, super validator, or application provider. The only Canton-adjacent activity surfaced by official Canton ecosystem materials is Crédit Agricole's role as a joint structuring bank on the Hong Kong SAR Government's tokenized green bond offering, an issuance that has been associated with Canton-ecosystem infrastructure (GS DAP). Crédit Agricole CIB has independently been active in tokenized securities through the so|bond digital-bond platform co-developed with SEB, and CACEIS (the group's asset-servicing arm) holds a digital-asset custody licence used for EIB digital green bond issuance.
