Polymesh is a blockchain specifically designed to meet the needs of regulated financial markets by facilitating the creation, management, and trading of security tokens. Launched as an institutional-grade, public permissioned blockchain, Polymesh addresses the complexities associated with regulatory compliance by integrating essential features like identity verification, compliance controls, and settlement processes directly at the protocol level. Unlike general-purpose blockchains that rely on smart contracts, Polymesh simplifies the issuance of assets by enabling them to be created natively within the network, reducing risks and operational hurdles for financial institutions.
Built on principles of governance, confidentiality, and security, Polymesh ensures that all participants undergo identity verification, which helps maintain transparency while complying with regulatory standards like KYC and AML. This framework allows enterprises to tokenize real-world assets, including securities and real estate, while offering enhanced liquidity and market efficiency. By integrating regulatory requirements directly into its infrastructure, Polymesh creates a seamless environment for the tokenization of assets, catering to institutional needs and fostering the broader adoption of blockchain technology in traditional finance.
