Oceanus Group, Clearwater to pioneer blockchain-based trade finance

The initiative will utilise Oceanus’ AI-powered finance platform, ODIN.

Oceanus Group Limited has announced its collaboration with Clearwater Capital Pte. Ltd., focused on digitising structured trade flows.

The project aims to test a model for tokenising trade flows backed by verifiable cash flows on a blockchain, using Oceanus Group’s AI-driven finance platform, ODIN.

The initiative will examine whether new structuring methods and digital frameworks could be applied to the Group’s operations.

If regulatory requirements and internal approvals allow, the project will look at developing institutional-grade solutions that comply with governance, risk, and reporting standards; improving transparency and reporting of trade and supply chain activity; enhancing capital and operational efficiency; and potentially enabling broader stakeholder participation where appropriate.

Any resulting structures would not give participants ownership, voting rights, or management control over Oceanus Group or its subsidiaries.

Oceanus Group’s existing trade and supply chain operations generate roughly $253m (US$200m) in annual trade flows, primarily short-term, self-liquidating transactions with real-economy counterparties.

These flows are projected to reach around $379.5m (US$300m) in 2026.

The discussions remain at an exploratory and evaluation stage.

No definitive agreements have been entered into, and no fund launch, token issuance, or capital raising has occurred to date.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
