If something doesn’t work, then change it. That’s the spark that ignites Calastone. We’ve made it our mission to reduce complexity, risk, and cost, enabling the industry to deliver greater value to the investor. We continuously seek innovative ways to automate and streamline the global investments marketplace, including mutual funds, ETFs and money markets, reducing frictional costs for the benefit of all.
We’re not afraid of change. Real progress only comes when you challenge the status quo.
We started by asking why so much of an investment gets lost in the process. And when we couldn’t find an answer that satisfied us, we created the Calastone Network—a way to communicate electronically and automate order routing. This innovation slashed industry costs overnight, creating a new benchmark. It was ground-breaking, resilient, and globally scalable. Seeing the difference it made inspired us to do more.
Today, our service extends beyond the traditional funds market, covering ETFs and money markets to help financial institutions capitalise on new efficiencies. With our cutting-edge technology, the DMI, we are on the brink of an exciting new era. Distributed ledger technology will enable us to extend the benefits of digitalisation across the entire industry, driving a revolution in how asset management operates.
We are ready. We won’t stop until everyone is seamlessly connected in a new marketplace—where the asset management industry is fully automated, globally connected, and frictionless. We empower all market participants to evolve their business models, enabling scale to innovate and innovation to scale.
This is the future. And it starts with asking why.
