HashKey On-Chain Partners with TradeGo to Co-Build Cross-Border Trade On-Chain Financing Platform

A mature comprehensive digital asset company in Asia HashKey Group (Stock Code: 3887.HK)'s HashKey On-Chain announced today a partnership with TradeGo, a global leading cross-border trade digitalization platform. Both parties will rely on the digitization and on-chain conversion of trade documents such as electronic bills of lading to co-build a digital asset financing platform for cross-border trade scenarios, explore innovative applications of Real World Assets (RWA) in trade financing, and improve the efficiency of trade asset circulation and financing convenience.

Cross-border trade financing has long relied on trade documents such as bills of lading as important credentials for cargo ownership and fulfillment. In the traditional model, trade document auditing, cargo ownership confirmation, and financing approval usually involve coordination among multiple institutions, resulting in complex processes and long cycles, which not only increases operating costs but also affects the efficiency of corporate capital turnover. Especially for small and medium-sized trade enterprises, even if they have real trade backgrounds and goods in transit, they may find it difficult to obtain financing support in a timely manner due to factors such as low efficiency in document verification and opaque cargo ownership information.

In this cooperation, HashKey Issuance Platform (HIP) will serve as the underlying digital asset infrastructure, mapping trade documents such as electronic bills of lading into on-chain digital credentials, achieving asset status tracking and business process automation through smart contracts, providing a trusted data foundation for trade financing. TradeGo will be responsible for core business processes such as electronic bill of lading issuance, circulation and auditing, as well as trade asset authenticity verification, enterprise access and risk control.

As an important legal credential representing property rights in international trade, the electronic bill of lading is an important digital carrier of Real World Assets. This cooperation, through trusted digital financial infrastructure, establishes a verifiable, traceable, and manageable digital representation of real trade assets, enabling trade documents such as electronic bills of lading to become digital assets capable of serving trade financing. This will not only help improve the full lifecycle management capability of trade assets but also further reduce enterprise asset verification costs, improve trade financing efficiency, and provide a replicable practical path for the application of Real World Assets (RWA) in the trade finance field.

HashKey On-Chain Business Group CEO Li Chen stated: "Trade financing is an important application scenario for digital asset technology serving the real economy. Currently, Hong Kong is actively promoting the digitalization of trade financing, exploring the use of trusted trade and logistics data to improve financing efficiency and SME financing accessibility. This cooperation with TradeGo is an active practice in this direction. HashKey On-Chain hopes to rely on institutional-grade digital asset infrastructure to establish a trusted and verifiable digital representation of real trade assets, promote closer integration of trade data, digital assets, and financial services, and provide infrastructure support for Hong Kong's trade financing digitalization and digital asset ecosystem construction."

TradeGo CEO Yu Yingjiao stated: "The digitalization of cross-border trade is not just about the digitization of paper documents, but more importantly about establishing a trusted and verifiable data foundation. This cooperation with HashKey will further enhance the application value of digital trade documents such as electronic bills of lading in trade financing, help financial institutions identify real trade assets more efficiently, while helping trade enterprises improve financing efficiency, reduce communication and auditing costs, and provide more efficient and trusted solutions for the development of cross-border trade digitalization."
