During the @Sibos 2026 conference, Sergey Nazarov and Dan Doney of DTCC discussed how @The_DTCC and Chainlink are working together to push forward continuous, 24/7 collateral management.

Anticipated to launch in Q1 2027, the DTCC Collateral AppChain acts as a shared infrastructure platform dedicated to collateral. This system utilizes the Chainlink data standard alongside the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) to facilitate almost instantaneous collateral management spanning multiple blockchains and global financial markets.

The platform is specifically designed to enable crucial automation, data processing, and orchestration features. It will also support the frictionless synchronization of asset movements, valuations, and prices, while greatly improving the ability to handle market risks tied to collateral.

As part of this collaboration, Chainlink is set to deliver several core components. They will supply the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) to manage seamless orchestration across various systems. Furthermore, Chainlink will provide CCIP to ensure robust cross-chain messaging and interoperability between the DTCC Collateral AppChain and participating blockchain networks. Finally, Chainlink Data Feeds will be integrated to supply the verifiable market data required to perform accurate valuations.
