Tradable

Tradable operates as a financial technology firm, providing a platform to bridge traditional asset management with on-chain finance. Founded in 2022, the Chicago-based company was established as a joint venture between a private credit firm and a data security company.

The core of Tradable's business is to enable asset managers and originators to tokenize their investment strategies, particularly in private credit, making them accessible to a broader, global investor base. The platform serves two primary client types: institutional asset managers who want to syndicate deals and grow their assets under management (AUM), and accredited investors seeking access to institutional-grade yield-generating products. Revenue is generated as the company facilitates these transactions and manages the tokenized assets.

The platform provides end-to-end software for syndication and co-investment, automating processes to reduce the time and cost associated with bringing assets to market. For asset managers, Tradable integrates with their existing software stack, allowing them to list and manage deals compliantly without needing extensive web3 experience. A key feature is the embedding of compliance protocols, such as KYC/AML and investor accreditation, directly into the smart contracts of the tokenized assets. This ensures that only qualified investors can participate. For investors, the platform offers an interface to discover, conduct due diligence on, and invest in opportunities like senior secured loans and legal receivables, which were traditionally difficult to access. The system supports the entire lifecycle of a deal, from initial investor offers and approvals to capital calls and distributions. By January 2025, the company had successfully tokenized $1.7 billion in assets across nearly 30 private credit positions. The firm has received strategic investments from notable venture capital and digital asset management firms including ParaFi Capital, Victory Park Capital, and Spring Labs.
