Digital Asset Holdings, LLC, a developer of Distributed Ledger Technology for the financial services industry, today announced that it has entered into non-exclusive strategic business relationships with Accenture, Broadridge and PwC designed to ensure the faster adoption and scalability of its innovative solutions, and create additional value for clients across the financial ecosystem.

The Accenture relationship will provide consulting and systems integration services for clients through collaboration on blockchain-related work at global financial institutions. Accenture, the world's largest independent technology services provider, will provide a range of services under the agreement – from feasibility studies, business case assessments and operating model design to advisory services on systems architecture, cybersecurity and cloud, through to full-scale systems integration.

The PwC partnership will focus on taking PwC's recently released Blockchain Portfolio and aligning the services around Digital Asset's solutions and delivery model. PwC's goal is to offer Digital Asset's clients globally available, on-demand services across strategic, business, and technical domains. The core focus will be on helping PwC's clients get educated and evaluate the best opportunities to utilize Digital Asset solutions, with PwC specifically offering clients a variety of discrete services to execute proof of concept engagements.

"The potential for Distributed Ledger Technology to bring innovation to the financial services industry is clear," said Owen Jelf, Managing Director of Accenture's Global Capital Markets Practice. "Developing and implementing the technology on an industrial scale is the next step. Our close collaboration with Digital Asset will help financial institutions realize this potential, bringing new levels of efficiency and revenue."
