agora Digital Capital Markets has announced its authorisation and regulation by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).

The technology firm has also secured a series of global certifications, including ISO 27001 certification for its information security management system in 2021, and ISO 14001 certification for the company’s environmental management systems.

These certifications will “enhance” the firm's commitment to building a secure, sustainable and “truly” end-to-end digital workflow for fixed-income products, through the agoraPlatform.

Charlie Berman, co-founder and CEO at agora, comments: “From day one, we at agora have understood that it requires ecosystem input from issuers, banks, regulators and others to enable origination and lifecycle management of securities as they exist today in a digital environment.

“We also know that all participants desire to build a safer, more sustainable infrastructure. This news shows several concrete steps we have taken towards building a safer, more sustainable infrastructure that has already been validated by existing and future customers.”
