Kaiko and Ownera Announce SuperApp Collaboration to Deliver Market Data Across the Ownera Ecosystem
Kaiko has entered into a strategic partnership with Ownera to launch a Data Services SuperApp on the Ownera SuperApps Platform, built on Ownera’s open-source FinP2P protocol.
The collaboration means that Kaiko’s institutional-grade proprietary and third-party data will be natively accessible to financial institutions operating on Ownera’s ecosystem, enabling banks, asset managers, and custodians to ingest digital asset market data directly into their tokenized asset workflows, without building separate data integrations.
Delivering data infrastructure through the SuperApps model
The Kaiko Data Services SuperApp will provide three core functionalities within the Ownera ecosystem:
- Data On-Ramp – enables off-chain data providers to distribute their data across the Ownera SuperApps platform, fully normalized and managed by Kaiko
- Data Off-Ramp – allows institutions on the platform to share their on-chain activity data with third parties off-chain, accessible via robust APIs
- Data Lifecycle Applications – supports complex workflows that require coordination with multiple parties or complex computations, such as collateral valuation, risk monitoring, and settlement verification
An institution already connected to the network can access Kaiko’s data services as part of the same environment it uses for trading, settlement, and collateral management.
This is the practical value of the SuperApp model: specialized capabilities deployed once and available to every participant on the network.
Tokenized money market funds as collateral
Through this partnership, Kaiko is now an active part of the U.S. TMMF Collateral Industry Sandbox, a key industry initiative that seeks to enable Tokenized Money Market Funds (TMMFs) to be eligible as collateral in both cleared and non-cleared derivatives markets as part of the broader GDF & ISDA TMMF as Collateral Working Group.
TMMFs have the potential to transform how cash is sourced for margin calls by enabling near instant transfers of ownership and configurable settlement. If implemented correctly, they could feasibly eradicate cash bottlenecks during market volatility entirely. The infrastructure required to support this – continuous monitoring, cross-platform reconciliation, and methodology-transparent valuations – is precisely what Kaiko’s Data Services SuperApp is designed to deliver within the Ownera ecosystem.
This represents a fundamental opportunity to reshape the $8 trillion money market fund industry into a real-time, interoperable settlement layer for global finance.
“We are excited to partner with Ownera to enable institutional-grade market data to reach tokenized asset infrastructure,” said Philippe Redaelli, Managing Director, Strategic Initiatives at Kaiko. “Through the Kaiko Data Services SuperApp, our data is now at the center of Ownera’s multi-ledger platform. By being part of the US TMMF Collateral Mobility Industry Sandbox initiative, we’re excited to contribute and define the standards for tokenized collateral in future U.S. TMMF markets.”
Natasha Benson, COO and CFO at Ownera, commented, “Institutional-grade data infrastructure isn’t optional when tokenized assets are being used as collateral, priced in real time, or traded across counterparties. Kaiko’s SuperApp demonstrates the value of the open application layer we’ve built. Institutions connect once, and capabilities like regulated market data become available across the entire network – no bilateral integrations, no fragmented data pipelines. Every SuperApp deployed on the platform strengthens the ecosystem for every participant already connected.
