European financial institutions launch RL1 cooperative blockchain network

Ten major European financial institutions have launched the Regulated Layer One (RL1) blockchain cooperative, established as a European Cooperative Society in Luxembourg. This jointly owned, private permissioned network is designed for regulated financial markets and tokenized assets like digital money, bonds, and collateral. Founding members include ABN AMRO, Crédit Mutuel, DZ BANK, LBBW, Natixis CIB, and others, each with equal governance rights. The network is based on infrastructure from German fintech SWIAT, which transferred ownership to the cooperative. The platform has already processed over 50 transactions worth more than €700 million in production. RL1 aims to reduce fragmentation by providing a shared ledger for institutional use and settlement, with former SWIAT managing director Henning Vollbehr at the helm. Discussions with additional institutions, including NatWest, are underway.

Ten European Banks Unite in RL1 Blockchain Association

Ten major European financial institutions, including ABN AMRO, Crédit Mutuel, DekaBank, and Standard Chartered's SC Ventures, have launched the Regulated Layer One (RL1) blockchain association. Registered as a European Cooperative Society in Luxembourg, RL1 aims to build a unified, permissioned blockchain infrastructure for regulated markets and tokenized assets like digital money, bonds, and securities lending. The network is based on technology from the German fintech SWIAT, which has processed over €700 million in transactions. Governance is shared equally among members. Former SWIAT managing director Henning Vollbehr will lead RL1, with talks underway for other institutions like NatWest to join. The initiative seeks to reduce market fragmentation caused by disparate distributed ledgers. However, the current transaction volume on the underlying SWIAT platform—just over 50 deals in three years—highlights the significant technical challenge of scaling the network to handle real interbank trading volumes.

Ten European Banks Launch Blockchain Initiative RL1

On July 28, 2026, ten European financial institutions launched the Regulated Layer One (RL1) initiative. This open, neutral, and compliance-focused blockchain network is specialized for institutional digital asset operations. The founding members include ABN AMRO, Cecabank, Chartered Investment, Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale, DekaBank, DZ BANK, LBBW, Natixis CIB, SC Ventures, and Seturion, formed as a European cooperative society (SCE) and led by Henning Voelkel, former head of SWIAT. The network is open to new participants, with NatWest currently in discussions to join. RL1 is built on the SWIAT blockchain, which will remain its software and services provider. The underlying SWIAT network, operational for three years, has processed 50 transactions totaling €700 million. The initiative is described as a collective European effort to create a foundation for a shared, openly and trustworthily managed distributed ledger. Its primary goal is to overcome fragmentation in the regulated financial sector by establishing a neutral, participant-owned, pan-European DLT infrastructure for tokenized assets, digital money, and next-generation financial services. The move responds to growing EU demand for scalable real-world asset (RWA) infrastructure, evidenced by projects like Pontes and Appia. This launch aligns with broader sector growth expectations, including Standard Chartered's forecast for DeFi and RWA market capitalization to reach $2 trillion.
