In a financial system increasingly shaped by digital assets, new opportunities, but also challenges, are opening up for banks and financial service providers.

One thing is clear: anyone who wants to be successful in the long term can no longer avoid innovative solutions and products such as crypto-backed loans. These are loans secured against potential defaults or repayment difficulties using digital currencies as collateral.

The modular Crypto-Backed Lending Solution package from Sopra Financial Technology is the tailor-made response to this development and enables you to strategically expand your loan portfolio.

Why Rethinking Is NecessaryCrypto Assets: Seize Opportunities, Minimize Risks

 

Cryptocurrencies have become an integral part of the financial world, and their use is continuously increasing. The global lending volume for cryptocurrency lending and borrowing currently exceeds USD 36 billion – and the trend is continuing to grow. Digital currencies are tradable worldwide, highly liquid, and can be valued around the clock.

At the same time, however, they pose structural, legal, and technological challenges for banks: volatile markets require real-time monitoring and flexible collateralization mechanisms. The legally sound realization of collateral provided in the form of crypto assets continues to raise complex questions and requires a clear regulatory framework. Last but not least, digitally savvy customers expect a seamless user experience and new offerings that incorporate digital assets.

Sopra Financial Technology meets all these requirements with a product that combines regulatory security, scalability, and user-centricity.

Our Offer For YouCrypto-Backed Lending Solution – Your Entry Ticket to the Future Market

The Crypto-Backed Lending Solution is more than a technical platform – it is your springboard into a growing market that you can scale step by step. The most important benefits at a glance:



Individual design...

...of loan offers through specific configurations and electronic transmission to customers.

Conditions such as interest rates, terms, and loan-to-value ratios can be flexibly adjusted and tailored to different customer segments. This allows institutions to develop and offer market-specific products in a targeted manner. Digital transmission ensures fast, seamless contract conclusion.

 



Secure orchestration...

...between the lender and the crypto custodian during the deposit and locking of digital assets.

System-side control ensures seamless coordination between all parties and processes involved. Digital assets are reliably deposited, locked, and liquidated as needed – automated and traceable. This ensures the security of the deposited collateral at all times.



Monitoring...

... the required transactions and the loan disbursement in fiat currency.

All relevant payment flows and crypto transactions are monitored and documented in real time. This monitoring enables transparent and audit-proof traceability of all business transactions. This allows institutions to maintain control over open positions and payment flows at all times.



Creation and archiving...

...of the required contracts.

Contract creation is automated via interfaces based on individually configured loan offers and customer data. All contract documents are archived in the customer system in an audit-proof manner and are digitally accessible at any time – for maximum efficiency, compliance, and seamless processes.



LTV monitoring...

...with automated customer notification and liquidation logic.

The current loan-to-value (LTV) ratio is continuously monitored and compared with the agreed loan-to-value limits. When critical thresholds are reached, the customer is automatically informed with options for action. If the threshold is exceeded, the stored liquidation logic is activated to minimize the risks for the lender.


Become a digital pioneer. Unlock new revenue streams, attract young investors – and shape the future of finance with crypto-backed loans.
