Lending solutions leverage on emerging technologies to simplify the lending process and to increase the accessibility of lending services. Lending solution encompasses functions like credit scoring, AI deployment, alternative lending solutions and intuitive mobile solutions for lending. Traditional physical assets are illiquid and difficult to sub-divide for securitizing the loan. The solution leverages on blockchain technology to convert illiquid assets to digital assets, assigning ownership to multiple stakeholders and allowing for fractional ownership and securitizing financial transactions. The solution simplifies the complicated process of completing transaction and transfer of ownership, reducing administrative costs involved, speeding up transaction completion time as well builds a transparent environment with trust among the parties involved.

1. Securitizing financial transactions using
distributed ledger technology (DLT)
Case study
Context:
A bank wanted a solution to allow for
subdivisions of real estate with regard to loans
and ownership in order to expand their real
estate mortgage offerings to a wider
demographic.
The bank’s client intended to invest in real
estate, but did not have sufficient funds to
purchase the property alone. The platform
enabled multiple investors to own a portion of
the property and pay the corresponding
proportionate mortgage.
Value-added:
The blockchain technology helped break the
ownership of illiquid assets into pieces,
decreasing the barriers for investment and
increasing the liquidity of illiquid assets. The
trading process is also shortened and simplified
by removing the intermediary.
EY’s role and activities:
• Analyzing the business requirements to
configure an appropriate blockchain node
subdivision system

according to their requirements
• Increasing existing users’ time of purchase
— meanwhile, reminding the users regularly
when they need to be covered by insurance
• Big data collection analyzed to optimize
insurance product
