ATME, a digital assets exchange licensed by the Central Bank of Bahrain (CBB), is setting new standards in the Middle East, with a mission to modernize capital markets. In fact, ATME offers a secure trading platform and complete real-world asset (RWA) tokenization services, empowering both businesses and investors.
Operating as a digital marketplace, ATME enables companies to convert real-world assets—such as commodities, private equity, and real estate—into digital tokens stored on a private blockchain. These tokens are then made available for trading in a regulated environment, increasing both accessibility and efficiency.
By providing fractional ownership of high-value assets, ATME opens these opportunities to a wider range of investors and offers businesses new ways to raise capital.
Alex Lola, CEO of ATME, highlighted the platform’s potential at a recent media roundtable: “Our platform allows smaller businesses to access capital-raising opportunities and enables investors to explore asset classes previously beyond their reach. We’re building a financial ecosystem that promotes inclusivity, security, and growth for all participants.”
According to ATME, its proprietary platform is built on the Hyperledger Fabric (HLF) framework, ensuring that every transaction is secure, transparent, and auditable. With integrated Know-Your-Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) protocols, ATME limits access to verified participants only, creating a safe and compliant trading environment.
“Our goal is to become the region’s leading digital assets exchange,” added Lola. “As economies like Bahrain and the UAE embrace economic reforms and digital transformation, they are setting new standards for innovation in finance. ATME’s platform aligns with this shift by providing businesses with compliant, modern solutions for capital-raising and offering investors new opportunities for diversification.”
Beyond technology, ATME provides end-to-end support throughout the issuance and tokenization process. From deal structuring and smart contract development to token minting and distribution, the company’s advisory services help businesses navigate regulatory complexities and achieve their growth objectives.
