Institutional Finance Architecture

The control plane between
digital asset infrastructure
and institutional approval.

Cross-border payments now span stablecoins, treasury workstations, custody platforms, liquidity venues, and real-time rails. Vestry sits above that stack as the attestation layer that proves authorization, hierarchy, reconciliation, and reporting controls existed before value moved.

Compliance control plane

A system of record that consumes rules and evidence, attests over authorization, and sits above rails without performing value movement.

Stack ecosystem
The Compliance Gap

The institutional blockchain stack is built. The compliance layer is not.

The institutional stack is assembled — treasury workstations, prime brokerage, qualified custody, and stablecoin settlement rails now run at enterprise scale.

Every Fortune 500 CFO evaluating digital assets still cannot sign a contract. The compliance layer that their audit committee requires does not exist natively on any blockchain platform. That gap is Vestry.

Travel Rule
Jurisdiction-Fragmented Thresholds
Each jurisdiction has different baseline data, expanded information triggers, verification obligations, and reporting timelines. No unified orchestration layer exists across settlement platforms.
Account Hierarchy
CBA Structures Not Natively Supported
Customer Business Account parent/subsidiary trees with SOX-governed audit trails do not exist in any blockchain platform today.
Reconciliation
Four-Ledger Problem, Zero Tooling
Treasury workstation + prime brokerage + qualified custody + stablecoin issuer creates a four-ledger reconciliation gap with no institutional-grade tooling available.
Regulatory Reporting
Five Jurisdictions, Five Manual Processes
Different filing formats, different thresholds, different timelines. Fully manual across every jurisdiction today.
Platform Capabilities

Four orchestration layers. One system of record.

Travel Rule Engine
Unified policy orchestration across jurisdiction-specific baseline data, expanded information triggers, and verification obligations. Single API across every connected settlement platform.
FATF Compliant
CBA Hierarchy Manager
Customer Business Account trees with parent/subsidiary relationships, SOX-governed access controls, and deterministic audit trails for every account action.
SOX Section 302
SOX Audit Vault
Audit Replay Engine: deterministic, time-indexed reconstruction of every compliance decision. Non-removable. Board-ready. Meets Section 302/404 requirements.
Section 404 Ready
Regulatory Reporting
Automated multi-jurisdictional filings. Control Mapping Layer ties every output to specific regulatory control IDs cited in board reports and external audits.

How It Works

From blockchain data to audit-ready output.

Ingest from Infrastructure
Native API connectors to treasury workstations, prime brokerage, qualified custody, and stablecoin settlement rails. No batch exports. Real-time event streaming with deterministic sequencing.
Treasury Workstation Custody Settlement Rails
Orchestrate Compliance
Every transaction passes through the Travel Rule Engine, CBA Hierarchy Manager, and Control Mapping Layer. Explainability Layer generates plain-language rationale for every decision — auditor-ready.

Produce Institutional Output
SOX Audit Vault preserves every decision with its full context, timestamp, and policy version. Regulatory filings auto-generated per jurisdiction. CFO and audit committee dashboards available out of the box.
SOX Vault Board Reports Regulatory Filings
Built For

Built for institutional treasury and compliance teams operating across settlement rails.

Corporate Treasury
Multi-entity / Multi-rail
Treasury teams adopting digital settlement need parent/subsidiary account governance, SOX-governed audit trails, and reconciliation across every ledger they touch.
Vestry delivers the control package that procurement and audit committees require before production rollout.
Compliance Officers
Travel Rule / AML / Reporting
Jurisdiction-specific thresholds, verification obligations, and filing formats orchestrated through one policy layer with deterministic, explainable outcomes.
Every output maps to a specific regulatory control ID, ready for board reports and external audit.
Audit Committees
SOX 302/404 / Evidence
An append-only audit vault with deterministic replay reconstructs every past compliance decision with its full context, timestamp, and policy version.
Independently verifiable proof, not vendor assurances.
Jurisdictional Coverage

Five jurisdictions. One compliance layer.

The Architect
Founder & Chief Architect
Founder · 23 years in payments, RegTech, and enterprise financial architecture
23+ years building payment and compliance infrastructure — $850B+ in annual payment processing across card networks, ACH, and real-time rails at three of the largest US financial institutions
Enterprise architect across ISO 20022, SEPA, SWIFT gpi, stablecoin infrastructure, and regulatory compliance automation — with M&A technology due diligence experience across multimillion-dollar transactions
FINOS contributor — Regulation Innovation SIG — institutional finance open standards, trusted by Tier 1 banks
"Every competitor in this space is crypto-native building toward institutional finance. Vestry is institutional finance architecture building toward blockchain. That inversion is the moat."

Vestry was built by someone who has spent 23 years at the intersection of payment infrastructure, regulatory technology, and enterprise architecture — managing systems that process $850B+ annually and advising top-tier US financial institutions on the compliance decisions that determine whether technology investments become revenue or liability.

The compliance gap in institutional digital assets is not a blockchain problem. It is an institutional architecture problem — the same class of problem as ISO 20022 migration, SWIFT gpi reconciliation, and cross-border regulatory reporting. Vestry applies the same discipline that solved those problems to the layer that blockchain infrastructure forgot to build.

Early Access

The CFO conversation starts before the platform ships.

Vestry is in active development. We are selecting a small group of design partners — Fortune 500 treasury teams, enterprise compliance officers, and institutional finance architects — to shape the platform from the ground up.
