EdgeVerve Systems’ newly-introduced Blockchain Framework furthers the adoption of blockchain technology by the global financial services sector.
A subsidiary of Infosys , which offers the Infosys Finacle universal banking solution suite, EdgeVerve introduced the product at the Infosys Confluence global client summit in San Francisco, Calif. EdgeVerve developed the framework to deliver value-generating solutions based on the blockchain. A Scalable Solution
The framework is a permissioned ledger that lets banks rapidly deploy blockchain -based services. The solution can scale to the levels needed to support global, cross-border transactional business.

Applications can deliver transactional security, increased efficiencies and accuracy at less cost than high-cost ledger platforms presently underpinning the global banking systems.
“Blockchain can offer significant opportunities to modernize legacy processes, reduce costs as well as improve operational efficiency and authenticity of transaction data,” said Andy Dey, EdgeVerve president of customer and operations. “At EdgeVerve, we are making significant investments in this space that includes our research facility in Ireland and important financial industry partnerships. Several of the world’s leading financial institutions are already collaborating with us to build blockchain-powered banking applications and networks.”
