What Laplace does

Laplace is a Singapore-based digital investment bank that operates a marketplace for institutional-grade tokenized investment products targeted at accredited individual investors and institutional clients. Founded in 2018 by the team behind Namara Wealth Advisors Pte. Ltd. — a Monetary Authority of Singapore-regulated fund manager holding Capital Markets Services License CMS100597 — Laplace issues products through a sub-fund under a Singapore Variable Capital Company structure. The platform offers tokenized fixed-income products (LEURY, LUSDY, LSGDY) and crypto strategy products (LDLFCB, LDATCB, LDLSCB, LCFARB, LDSNEXD) with minimum investments starting at $10,000 USD, supported by WalletConnect-compatible custody, ONCHAINID digital identity, and fiat plus crypto settlement (USD, EUR, GBP, SGD, USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL).

The underlying technology stack centers on Laplace Research Capital, an in-house 24/7 automated market maker and high-frequency trading platform that has executed over $90 billion in cryptocurrency trades since Q4 2020 across Gemini, Binance, Coinbase, OKX, and Bitflyer. An 8-core Engine integrates KYC verification, onboarding, capital investment and wallet custody, asset tokenization, risk management, trading and liquidity, redemption and interoperability, and asset management into a single workflow. SOC 2 Type 1 and ISO 27001 certifications support the institutional security posture, and onboarding is positioned to deliver approvals within one business day.

Laplace generates revenue through management and performance fees on tokenized products, issuance fees for corporations and financial institutions seeking to tokenize assets on the platform, and transaction fees embedded in RFQ-based marketplace executions. Its go-to-market combines a self-serve investor portal (investor.laplace.digital) with sales-led outreach for issuer partnerships and institutional clients. Customer segments span accredited individuals, family offices, and asset issuers across global markets (excluding sanctioned jurisdictions), with recent strategic emphasis on U.S. regulatory positioning around the GENIUS Act, Clarity Act, and Anti-CBDC Act frameworks and on Japan-market expansion via the JFIIP program.
