Accounting firm EY has launched an Ethereum-based blockchain solution to help businesses execute complex agreements efficiently while cutting costs and bolstering security. 
On April 17, EY <a href="https://www.ey.com/en_gl/newsroom/2024/04/ey-launches-opschain-contract-manager-solution-to-support-secure-private-business-agreements-on-public-ethereum" target="_blank" rel="">announced </a>the launch of the EY OpsChain Contract Manager (OCM), a blockchain-enabled solution designed to overcome barriers like managing multiple business agreements across internal and external operational and technology silos. 
The blockchain solution also allows multiple parties to synchronize data among business partners. It also uses smart contracts to enforce key agreements such as standardized pricing, volume discounts, rebates, and strike prices. 
The Big Four firm cited statistics from Zion Market Research, which projects that the global smart contracts market will reach $1 billion by 2030. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is expected to be around 24% between 2023 and 2030. 
EY OCM, which debuted at the annual EY Global Blockchain Summit, runs on the Ethereum blockchain. This ensures that it operates in a decentralized manner within a stable environment.

EY OCM uses an API to manage smart contract providers. This allows firms to create personalized user interfaces and enable the configuration of standard pre-built contracting models. The initial set of pre-built models includes Power Purchase Agreements for renewables. 
Furthermore, EY stated that the solution can automatically validate contract terms using real-time checks. It also analyzes policy compliance and instantly alerts users to any inconsistencies. As a result, transactions that do not comply with the contract requirements are blocked from proceeding. 
This helps to avoid a strategic advantage for either a buyer or a seller. Additionally, it helps to reduce the high costs associated with launching and managing a private network. It also tackles the concerns of exchanging sensitive company information through a consolidated industry portal.

At that time, EY said that the Reconciler tool would assist <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/fidelity/" rel="">Fidelity </a>in improving its internal risk management for digital assets.
