Core Framework Capabilities We Deliver
We architect and deploy robust, secure, and scalable frameworks that enable seamless value transfer between central bank digital currencies and existing financial rails, accelerating your time-to-market.
Business Outcomes for Your Institution
Our CBDC Interoperability Framework delivers measurable advantages, reducing technical complexity and accelerating your path to market with enterprise-grade security.
Accelerated Time-to-Market
Deploy a production-ready, cross-border CBDC framework in under 12 weeks, bypassing years of R&D. We provide a modular architecture that integrates with existing core banking systems.
Secure Cross-Border Settlement
Enable atomic, final settlement between heterogeneous CBDC networks in under 3 seconds. Our framework uses battle-tested cryptographic protocols and has undergone formal verification.
Regulatory & Compliance Readiness
Incorporate built-in modules for AML/CFT screening, transaction monitoring, and jurisdictional rule enforcement, ensuring adherence to BIS and IMF principles from day one.
Reduced Operational Overhead
Cut integration and maintenance costs by up to 60% with our managed framework. We handle protocol upgrades, node infrastructure, and interoperability layer monitoring under a 99.9% SLA.
Future-Proof Architecture
Designed for extensibility, our framework supports integration with private DLTs (Corda, Hyperledger), public blockchains, and upcoming digital asset standards without vendor lock-in.
Enhanced Monetary Policy Tools
Gain granular, programmable control over CBDC flows with smart contract-based features for tiered interest rates, expiry mechanisms, and targeted stimulus distribution.

Our Phased Delivery Methodology
We de-risk your CBDC interoperability project with a structured, milestone-driven approach. Each phase delivers a verified, functional component, ensuring alignment with central bank requirements and providing clear visibility into progress and investment.
Phase 1: Strategic Blueprint & Architecture
We deliver a comprehensive technical architecture and governance framework, defining interoperability standards (ISO 20022, BIS principles), cross-chain protocols (IBC, atomic swaps), and a detailed project roadmap. This phase establishes the foundation for regulatory compliance and technical feasibility.
Phase 2: Core Protocol & Smart Contract Development
Our engineers build the core interoperability bridge logic and smart contracts. This includes the mint/burn modules, cross-chain message passing, and settlement finality mechanisms, all developed in Rust or Solidity with formal verification and security-first patterns.
Phase 3: Integration & Testing Environment
We deploy a full-stack sandbox environment connecting your CBDC ledger to target networks (Ethereum, Cosmos, private chains). This phase includes exhaustive integration testing, performance benchmarking (>1000 TPS), and a pilot with simulated financial institutions.
Phase 4: Production Deployment & Go-Live
We manage the secure, phased rollout to your production infrastructure. This includes final security audits, validator/node onboarding, liquidity provisioning for bridges, and comprehensive monitoring dashboards for real-time settlement visibility.
Custom Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 experts for your specific use case.
We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the secure, immutable backbone of your application. Our development process is built on audited patterns and gas-optimized code to ensure reliability and cost-efficiency from day one.
- From Specification to Mainnet: Full lifecycle support from technical design and
Solidity/Rustdevelopment to deployment and verification. - Security-First Development: Code is built using OpenZeppelin standards and undergoes rigorous internal review before any third-party audit.
- Protocol-Specific Logic: Expertise in
ERC-20,ERC-721,ERC-1155, staking mechanisms, vesting schedules, and custom DeFi primitives.
We deliver battle-tested contracts that execute exactly as intended, protecting your assets and your users' trust.
Our engineers focus on future-proof architecture and clear upgrade paths, ensuring your contracts can evolve. We provide comprehensive documentation and a handover package, enabling your team to maintain and extend the codebase with confidence.
CBDC Interoperability Framework FAQs
Get clear answers to the most common questions from central banks, financial institutions, and payment providers about developing and deploying a cross-border CBDC framework.
A functional pilot connecting two central bank systems can be deployed in 8-12 weeks. This includes design, development of the interoperability layer (e.g., using Quant Overledger or custom smart contracts), integration with core banking simulators, and initial testing. Full production-grade deployment with multiple central banks and commercial participants typically takes 6-9 months.
