Stockholm-based Deploi has launched infrastructure for the direct issuance of private credit instruments on the blockchain. A pipeline of approximately EUR 100 million is already being built, and European investors gain access through a regulated trading platform.
The company has received ISIN allocations from Nasdaq CSD for its first debt instruments linked to consumer credit assets in the United Kingdom, using Polygon as the underlying blockchain. Distribution to European investors takes place through Assetera, an Austrian DLT platform for trading and settlement licensed under the MiFID II framework by the FMA.
The first series, 2026/CON/001, is linked to consumer credit assets in the United Kingdom. Individual instruments are issued in tranches of up to EUR 5 million, with target net yields of between six and eighteen percent depending on the structure of the underlying assets. Approximately EUR 100 million in additional issuances through Assetera is already planned over the next six months.
The ISIN allocations from Nasdaq CSD give the instruments a regulatory foundation in line with traditional securities. Settlement takes place through Assetera.
Deploi's infrastructure is built on EVM-compatible chains, with Polygon as the underlying blockchain. The company is working with the Canton Foundation to launch issuance and secondary market capabilities on Canton Network within 60 days. Canton Network is designed for regulated financial markets, combining institutional-grade privacy with interoperability across public blockchains.
"The traditional private credit market still runs on outdated infrastructure. What Deploi is doing with direct issuance and on-chain settlement is a clear step toward more efficient and transparent markets for institutional participants," says Marc Boiron, CEO of Polygon Labs.
Assetera serves as Deploi's licensed platform for trading and settlement in Europe. The partnership is designed to give institutional investors across the EU access to private credit instruments with full MiFID II compliance.
"Private credit has long been inaccessible to most European investors due to structural barriers — high minimums, opacity, and illiquidity. By providing the regulated infrastructure for Deploi's instruments, Assetera removes those barriers," says Thomas Labenbacher, CEO of Assetera.
Deploi founder Oskars Jepsis describes the launch as a direct consequence of the established market's failure to modernise: "The legacy private credit model is operationally outdated. Deploi replaces fragmented intermediaries with scalable digital infrastructure built for modern private credit markets."
