Finastra sees trade finance tokenization advancing without core platform replacement
  • Finastra expects trade finance tokenization to expand through new settlement networks without replacing banks' core trade platforms.
  • Legal recognition and industry adoption will determine the pace; only about 11% of bills of lading were issued electronically in 2025.
  • Tokenized payment obligations could extend financing to lower-tier suppliers, while tokenized trade assets could attract a wider investor base.
  • Banks should prioritize electronic trade documents, connect existing platforms to external networks and test one transaction before scaling.
