A New Chapter for Tokenised Securities in Regulated Finance
HAL Bank (Hauck Aufhäuser Lampe Privatbank AG) has launched a comprehensive register service for electronic securities in line with Germany’s eWpG framework. This offering allows for fully digital issuance and management of securities such as bonds and fund shares directly on a public blockchain. The system enables faster settlement, streamlined investor onboarding, and compliance with institutional requirements.
Softstack was selected as a smart contract auditor for this tokenised securities infrastructure. We are proud to have contributed to the secure launch of HAL Bank’s blockchain-based register.
Our Role as Smart Contract Auditor
HAL Bank’s blockchain register is built on a permissioned public network that supports secure, transparent, and real-time tracking of tokenised securities. The system uses smart contracts to govern the issuance, transfer, and management of digital instruments. As the smart contract audit partner, Softstack reviewed the protocol logic to ensure reliability, correctness, and protection against vulnerabilities.
This engagement focused exclusively on the audit of smart contracts responsible for the core register functionality. Our work helped ensure that digital assets issued on HAL Bank’s platform meet the security expectations of regulated financial institutions and their clients.
Why This Matters for the Future of Blockchain in Banking
The adoption of tokenised securities by a regulated institution like HAL Bank signals an important shift. What was once experimental is now becoming operational within traditional banking infrastructure. By moving securities onto blockchain, HAL Bank enhances efficiency, reduces counterparty risk, and prepares for a future of programmable finance.
Softstack, as a trusted institutional blockchain service provider, is proud to support this evolution. Our smart contract audits are designed for high-stakes environments where security, compliance, and resilience are critical. We see tokenised securities as a key frontier for institutional blockchain adoption, and HAL Bank’s initiative is an example of that future being built today.
