Grip has published an article exploring how tokenisation, smart contracts, digitised legal documentation, and the Common Domain Model (CDM) are transforming collateral management and post-trade workflows across the derivatives market.

*First published in GRIP on 27 May 2026.  
*

Written by our colleague Laura García, Consultant at TradeHeader, the article examines how the industry is moving away from manual, fragmented processes towards a more automated and efficient ecosystem capable of supporting greater collateral mobility and near real-time settlement.

The piece highlights the importance of structured legal data, reusable standards such as the CDM, and deterministic smart contract frameworks to improve operational efficiency, reduce risk, and enable scalable automation. It also explores the growing role of AI in collateral optimisation and the industry's broader ambition to achieve T+0 settlement through tokenised assets and digital cash equivalents.

A must-read for anyone interested in the future of collateral management, tokenisation, and the evolution of digital post-trade infrastructure in capital markets.
