Eight Asset Classes, One Record Standard

Real estate, private credit, treasuries, commodities, funds, stocks, cash-equivalent records, and non-US government debt differ—but record integrity should not.

In brief

Real estate, private credit, treasuries, commodities, funds, stocks, cash-equivalent records, and non-US government debt differ—but record integrity should not.

Different asset classes carry different economics, documents, restrictions, and reporting needs. OpenReal does not flatten those differences.

What can remain consistent is the standard applied to the record: clear provenance, controlled changes, attached evidence, role-based access, and exportable history.

A common operating language

A shared registry foundation allows teams to understand where each structure is unique without rebuilding basic controls each time.

Identity, eligibility, documents, approvals, and events can follow a common operating language while structure-specific rules remain explicit.

Infrastructure before volume

Coverage is meaningful only when the record standard holds. OpenReal's approach is to extend one disciplined model across asset classes without sacrificing consistency for breadth.

General information about ownership records and platform workflows. It does not create an agreement, authorize participation, or replace independent professional guidance.
