Calypso Technology, a technology solutions provider for global financial markets, has become a corporate member of the Wall Street Blockchain Alliance (WSBA).

The non-profit trade association encourages adoption of distributed ledger technology across financial markets, and addresses the need for blockchain knowledge and expertise across various disciplines of the financial industry.

For Calypso Technology, joining the WSBA will improve its presence in the blockchain sector.

Jean Safar, chief architect at Calypso said: “Blockchain has the potential to substantially improve both the efficiency and the transparency of the financial services industry, and the WSBA is dedicated to facilitating that transition.”

“We are excited about the opportunity to work with both their leadership and member firms as we explore the various applications of the distributed ledger. Our participation in the WSBA will enhance our existing blockchain research and development, allowing us to bring innovative solutions to market faster.”

Ron Quaranta, chair of the WSBA, said: “We are very pleased to have Calypso join the WSBA as one of our premier corporate members. Given the depth and breadth of their expertise in financial markets, as well as their innovative approach to blockchain and other disrupting technologies, we are confident that collaborating with Calypso on behalf of their customers and WSBA members will provide deep and lasting benefit for all parties.”
