Particula Successfully Completes PoC with Moody’s Ratings to Enhance Digital Asset Risk Capabilities

New York, NY – March 25, 2025 9:00 AM EST – Particula, a specialized risk assessment and analytics provider for digital assets, today announced the successful completion of a Proof of Concept (PoC) with Moody’s Ratings, a leading global provider of credit ratings, research, and risk analysis. The PoC explored advanced methods for evaluating operational risks associated with digital assets issued on multiple blockchain platforms, enhancing transparency and risk analysis in digital finance.

The initiative focused on integrating advanced technical risk analytics, including smart contract security, on-chain activity, and operational resilience. The results demonstrated how real-time monitoring and blockchain analytics can provide institutional investors and financial stakeholders with a more dynamic and comprehensive view of digital asset risks.

"Tokenization is transforming how financial markets operate, creating new opportunities as well as unique risk considerations," said Timm Reinsdorf, Managing Director at Particula. "By working with Moody’s Ratings, we were able to demonstrate the potential for data-driven approaches that enhance transparency and risk management in this growing sector."

Particula brings specialized expertise in real-time monitoring of evolving on-chain and off-chain risk factors, moving beyond traditional models which rely on point-in-time evaluations. This approach supports more adaptive and informed decision-making as digital finance continues to evolve, enabling a more dynamic approach to digital asset analysis.

"As institutional adoption of digital assets accelerates, market participants require deeper transparency and sophisticated risk analysis," said Rajeev Bamra, Head of Strategy, Digital Economy at Moody’s Ratings. "Our collaboration with Particula allowed us to evaluate the effectiveness of potential new approaches for assessing operational risks in the digital finance ecosystem, helping market participants obtain access to trusted, independent insights.

The outcomes of the PoC contribute to advancing digital asset risk assessment, providing valuable insights as market participants navigate an increasingly dynamic landscape amid evolving regulatory frameworks. This initiative marks an initial step in broader collaborative efforts to refine and enhance approaches to risk evaluation for digital assets.
