In today’s fast-changing financial world, digital assets are reshaping how banks and financial service providers operate.
These new technologies create fresh opportunities but also bring serious challenges. One thing is certain: any institution that wants to remain competitive must embrace innovative tools and products such as crypto-backed loans.
These are loans where customers use digital currencies as collateral, helping lenders reduce the risk of default or delayed repayment.
Sopra Financial Technology has developed a modular Crypto-Backed Lending Solution to help organizations adapt to this transformation. The package is designed to support banks that want to expand their lending services strategically and tap into a fast-growing market.
Why a New Approach Is Needed
Crypto Assets: Gain Opportunities While Managing Risks
Cryptocurrencies have become deeply embedded in today’s financial system, and their use keeps expanding.
The global volume of crypto lending and borrowing has already surpassed USD 36 billion, and demand continues to rise. Digital currencies are highly liquid, can be traded globally, and are priced around the clock.
However, despite these advantages, banks also face new obstacles. Crypto markets are extremely volatile, making real-time monitoring and flexible collateral management essential.
Handling digital assets as collateral raises legal, technical, and regulatory questions that must be addressed properly.
On top of that, modern customers expect seamless digital processes, fast services, and new offerings that integrate crypto in a user-friendly way.
Sopra Financial Technology meets these needs with a solution that ensures regulatory compliance, operational scalability, and a user-centric experience.
Our Solution for You
Crypto-Backed Lending Solution – Your Path Into the Future Lending Market
This solution is more than just another software platform. It acts as a gateway into a booming market and gives financial institutions the ability to scale their offerings step by step. Below are the most important advantages, explained in simple terms:
Flexible Configuration of Loan Products
Institutions can customize every detail of their loan products — from interest rates and repayment periods to loan-to-value (LTV) ratios.
These configurations can be tailored to different customer groups and market needs. Once the terms are set, they are electronically sent to customers, allowing for fast approvals and a smooth, fully digital contract process.
Secure Coordination Between Lender and Crypto Custodian
The platform manages all collaboration between the lender and the crypto custody provider. It ensures that digital assets are deposited, locked, and protected in a secure and automated manner.
If liquidation becomes necessary, the system handles it efficiently and transparently. This constant control ensures the safety of customer collateral at every stage.
Comprehensive Monitoring of Transactions and Loan Payouts
Every payment flow — from cryptocurrency transfers to fiat loan disbursements — is tracked in real time.
This gives institutions complete transparency and provides reliable, audit-ready documentation. Banks can monitor outstanding positions, incoming and outgoing transactions, and customer activities without losing oversight.
Automated Contract Generation and Long-Term Archiving
Based on the configured loan terms and customer details, the system automatically generates all required contracts.
These documents are securely stored in the customer system, ensuring they are always accessible in digital form. This supports compliance, reduces paperwork, and speeds up internal processes.
Continuous LTV Monitoring With Automated Alerts and Liquidation Rules
The system constantly checks the loan-to-value ratio and compares it with the agreed limits. If the value of the crypto collateral begins to fall, customers are automatically alerted and given clear options — such as adding more collateral or repaying part of the loan.
If the situation becomes critical, predefined liquidation rules activate instantly to protect the lender from losses.
