Post-trade in a tokenized world
Even when securities are tokenized, they still need to settle, clear, and be processed post-trade. Operations professionals in this space manage the lifecycle events, reconciliations, and settlement processes that keep digital securities markets functioning — adapting traditional post-trade expertise to on-chain settlement.
The role requires attention to detail and an understanding of how on-chain settlement differs from, and connects to, legacy systems.
Operations functions
Settlement and clearing, trade processing and reconciliation, corporate actions, lifecycle event management, and exception handling. Employers include digital securities exchanges, tokenization platforms, and the operations teams at issuers and service providers.
