SGX and Temasek back Covalent in digital bond initiative

A fintech built by a team of former Deutsche bankers in Singapore has became the first recipient of investment and partnership from Marketnode, a new venture between Singapore Exchange and Temasek.

A new digital asset venture between Singapore Exchange (SGX) and the sovereign wealth vehicle Temasek has announced its first partnership – with Covalent Capital, the fintech backed by alumni from Deutsche’s global markets business, which was profiled by Euromoney in 2018.

The SGX/Temasek venture is called Marketnode and is focused on digital initiatives in the capital markets space. It builds upon a previous initiative between the two groups and HSBC, which led to the issuance of Asia’s first public syndicated digital bond, for Olam International in August.

It will be unique.
