Partior and OpenAssets Bridge Tokenized Deposits for Atomic Settlement
A successful proof of concept between infrastructure providers Partior and OpenAssets has demonstrated a scalable method for atomic delivery-versus-payment. By utilizing commercial tokenized deposits as the primary settlement asset, the collaboration aims to bridge the current gap between digital assets, stablecoins, and traditional bank settlement environments.

Financial institutions have long struggled with fragmented workflows, as digital assets and commercial bank money typically operate in isolated environments requiring manual reconciliation. This joint initiative connects these silos, allowing OpenAssets' digital asset layer to interface directly with Partior's tokenized deposit network. The architecture facilitates the simultaneous exchange of assets, effectively eliminating traditional counterparty and principal settlement risks.
The project highlights four core capabilities: atomic delivery-versus-payment, the use of tokenized deposits as a primary settlement asset, end-to-end orchestration, and enhanced liquidity flexibility. By automating ledger reconciliation and credit delivery, the system enables banks to settle obligations in real time or bulk, depending on specific corridor requirements.
Partior CEO Humphrey Valenbreder noted that the collaboration reflects a broader commitment to building an interoperable network that lowers entry barriers and optimizes liquidity efficiency. Gabor Gurbacs, CEO of OpenAssets, emphasized that institutions can now settle tokenized assets against cash without abandoning the infrastructure they already rely on. This production-grade path provides a blueprint for global banks to integrate tokenized assets and nostro funds into their existing service offerings.
