In addition to sharing the same passion for technology, Nasdaq and Onbrane share the same commitment and focus on bringing innovative technology to the debt market. Onbrane counts as clients some of the largest public and private issuers in Europe, including prominent banks, brokers, and asset managers. Nasdaq Primary is a software as a service (SaaS) solution that provides all debt market participants with a comprehensive platform to structure, negotiate, issue, and invest in short-term debt instruments.

Nasdaq sat down with Pascal Lauffer, the CEO and Co-founder of Onbrane, to discuss the benefits of Onbrane and Nasdaq Primary for the debt capital market.

Nasdaq and Onbrane also believe that an efficient primary debt market needs to be closely connected to the secondary market. In addition to sharing the same passion for technology, Nasdaq and Onbrane share the same ambition and inclusive approach to bringing innovative technology to the debt market. Intermediaries will have more issuers and investors to work with, and investors will have more investment opportunities. Additionally, because Onbrane is ESG native, Onbrane is already able to integrate all of its ESG capabilities into the classic debt issuance process. Onbrane then allows them to contact their intermediaries in order to negotiate terms and to issue the resulting debt product. The primary debt market is critical to the financing of private, public and financial organizations and is therefore critical for the function of the global economy. Our intention is to become the platform where they all meet to do business together, to become the tool to digitalize their processes and to become the place where industry standards emerge. Onbrane is easy to onboard, easy to integrate into complex IT systems and easy to enable full front to back STP. We are certainly not the only company trying to modernize the debt market. We also over invest in security and quality control so our users and their IT department do not have to worry. Our vision is to see Onbrane become the technological fabric that enables this transformation. The product launched in partnership with Onbrane, a European fintech company focused on producing sustainable and innovative solutions for the debt market leveraging web-based technology.
