Moody’s has announced the launch of its network-agnostic Token Integration Engine™ (TIE), becoming the first credit rating agency to integrate analytical data and deliver credit insights directly on-chain.

The move marks an initial step in Moody’s broader digital transformation strategy, as the agency also becomes the first to achieve operational integration with the Canton Network. This milestone reflects Moody’s commitment to innovation by enabling secure, compliant, and efficient data integration, while distributing credit ratings through technologies designed for interoperability across platforms.

Fabian Astic, Managing Director and Global Head of Digital Economy at Moody’s Ratings, said:
“As financial markets continue to digitize, the need for independent, reliable risk analytics and credit insights remains constant. Moody’s is extending this rigorous approach to digital market infrastructure in line with global regulatory expectations and our standards for governance, transparency, and compliance.”

The TIE platform serves as a foundational integration layer, leveraging its presence on the Canton Network to enhance transparency and operational efficiency within digital finance ecosystems. Participation in the system will be issuer-driven, supporting market alignment while preserving Moody’s independence, control, and central role in global capital markets.

The Canton Network has been developed to meet the privacy and regulatory requirements of institutional finance, bringing together leading global institutions to synchronize financial data and workflows across a decentralized infrastructure.

Yuval Rooz, CEO of Digital Asset and co-founder of the Canton Network, commented:
“Moody’s clients now have a new way to access trusted credit insights within digital markets and on-chain finance environments, where they increasingly operate.”

He added that independent on-chain risk analysis simplifies information distribution to authorized participants, reduces complexity, and enhances transparency across the transaction lifecycle—while maintaining privacy, control, and regulatory compliance.

Moody’s Ratings plans to expand the TIE platform to additional digital finance networks, business sectors, and financial instruments as adoption continues to grow.
