According to ChainCatcher citing Decrypt, Moody’s Ratings and Chainlink completed a pilot demonstrating how credit ratings can be distributed simultaneously across multiple blockchains. Announced Tuesday, the test used Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) to send ratings to permissioned and permissionless networks.

The pilot ran through Moody’s Token Integration Engine (TIE), which is designed to distribute credit assessments and related data in blockchain environments. The companies said the test showed ratings could move across chains through a single interoperability layer while preserving Moody’s existing publication and governance processes. From January 2017 to October 2026, Moody’s rated or assessed more than 70 digital issuances, including digital bonds and tokenized funds.

Chainlink Labs Chief Business Officer Johann Eid said credit intelligence needs to move across chains as more financial assets are tokenized. Fabian Astic, Moody’s global head of digital economy, said the future of tokenized finance is unlikely to be limited to one blockchain, platform, or market infrastructure.

The pilot ran entirely on testnets with representative test data. No actual rating actions were published on-chain, making it a proof of concept rather than a launched product. Moody’s previously launched TIE on Canton Network and later expanded it to Solana.
