The problem we are addressing
Over the last 5,000+ years, the medium of exchange has evolved from a barter system to coins to banknotes to digital money. Each change has brought about a fundamental shift and enhanced efficiency in the way the world does commerce. Today, most financial assets are digital e.g. money, shares, bonds, insurance contracts.

With all its innovation, the financial system of today still has several shortcomings:

Speed: It is often not real time
Cost: It is expensive, making individual transaction costs high
Access: Every financial asset is not available to all

A key point to note is that any innovation here has to have 100% compliance with regulatory requirements such as AML, and identity verification. These are critical to deter illicit activity and preserve the integrity and stability of the financial system, and sovereign monetary policies.

We believe the problems in today's financial systems stem from the implementation of these policies (not the policies themselves), and the antiquated clearing, messaging and settlement systems which are often manual, inefficient and a key source of delay.
The Future of Finance
We strongly believe there’s a different way. A different way for the financial infrastructure of the world to operate. A different way for the world to transact.

We are building for a world where any financial asset can be transferred from anyone to anyone globally, in real-time, at close to zero cost.

We are enabling a financial infrastructure for the future - one which includes:

  • Tokenization: New form factor for all financial assets, transactions and investments
  • Seamless co-existence: Fiat and tokenized assets co-exist seamlessly. Businesses and individuals are indifferent to form-factor and optimize for cost, speed and access
  • Verifiable identity: Identity is universal, biometric-based and instantly verifiable for all digital or on-chain identity transactions
  • Improved systems: There is a significant improvement in the clearing, messaging, settlement systems and ledger technologies that have existed for decades

At Roma, our immediate focus is bridging the gap between fiat and digital assets for institutions around the world. We are early in this global journey. However, as is famously said, “Change happens gradually at first, and then suddenly”. Join us on this mission to change the way the world does finance!
