Issuance Announces Strategic Partnership with Technology-Driven Financial Institution Prime Trust

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Issuance, Inc., a deal marketing platform that connects digital securities issuers with prospective investors, today announced its partnership with Prime Trust, a blockchain-driven trust company that provides custody, compliance, and financial solutions aimed at making institutional and retail transactions in digital assets achievable, frictionless, and compliant. The partnership strives to fuel the growth of digital securities, providing issuers with the resources necessary to conduct compliant offerings as well as greater access to capital.

"The issue of trust and custody — how to safely store digital securities and other digital assets — has always been a weak point in the industry," says Darren Marble, CEO of Issuance. "Coming out of the ICO era, investors demand reliability, safety, and trust in the burgeoning digital securities space. We are honored to partner with Prime Trust to support the increasing demand for creative SEC-compliant fundraising solutions by both private and public companies."

Prime Trust solutions range from custody and escrow services, the handling of investment transactions, and support as a qualified third-party trustee for tokenized assets. As a custodian, Prime Trust holds cash and non-cash assets such as stocks, bonds, bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, tokens, real estate, and private business ownership interests. It is the only qualified custodian in the world that holds custody of any ERC-20 token issued on the Ethereum blockchain, and it is the first to custody all tokens for the Stellar Blockchain. The company has recently partnered with Polymath to provide custody for ST-20 tokens.

"Our partnership with Issuance supports our mission of better serving the evolving demands of both capital markets and growing companies," said Scott Purcell, CEO of Prime Trust. "While we help ensure our clients execute compliant offerings from the start, Issuance steps in to fill the critical role of advising companies on how to successfully access funding and by presenting investors with desired deal flow."

Issuance currently provides strategic advisory and deal marketing services to digital securities issuers. In addition to supporting its clients, Issuance is also raising capital under Rule 506(c) of Regulation D. Issuance intends to tokenize its capital stack after completing its raise and have its digital securities trade on the OpenFinance Network ATS, the first live, regulated digital securities trading platform in the US.
