Bloomberg and Kaiko Partner to Bring On-Chain Data Access to Tokenized Markets
Event summary
- Bloomberg and Kaiko announced a collaboration on February 26, 2026, to develop on-chain data access for tokenized markets.
- The initial focus is on supporting tokenized U.S. Treasuries and repo workflows on the Canton Network.
- Kaiko's data on-ramp service, launched in August 2025, will securely write off-chain market data on-chain while maintaining IP ownership and licensing compliance.

The initiative reflects the broader trend of integrating traditional financial systems with next-generation tokenized securities infrastructure.
