Archax, the UK regulated and registered digital securities exchange, broker and custodian, working with DLA Piper, has completed the first fundraise on its Primary Issuance Platform, an oversubscribed round of $1.5 million for its recently announced Montis Digital subsidiary, which is building blockchain-based market infrastructure for the post-trade ecosystem.

Participants in the raise were onboarded through the Archax website portal, with holdings maintained and recorded in the Archax regulated custody service, ready for future digital token issuance. The DLA Piper regulatory compliance platform was also used to automate the applicable regulatory requirements and to create the required legal documents for participating in a digital issuance. Also party to the raise was US broker/dealer GB Capital Markets, acting as placement agent for US investor participants.
