The Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC), known as the largest securities settlement system globally, has wrapped up a pilot project named Smart NAV in collaboration with blockchain oracle Chainlink (LINK), with major financial institutions from the US also participating. 
DTCC’s <a href="https://www.dtcc.com/-/media/Files/Downloads/DTCC-Connection/Smart_NAV-Report.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">report</a> states the pilot aimed to establish a standardized process for bringing and disseminating net asset value (NAV) data of funds across multiple blockchains, making tokenization of funds easier and more efficient over time.

Participating entities like JPMorgan, Franklin Templeton, BNY Mellon, and State Street explored a digital extension to DTCC’s Mutual Fund Profile Service (MFPS I) to leverage distributed ledger technology (DLT) for data dissemination and consumption. 
The pilot found that by delivering structured data onchain and creating standard roles and processes, foundational data could be embedded into various on-chain use cases like tokenized funds and “bulk consumer” smart contracts holding data for multiple funds.

It successfully demonstrated the feasibility of integrating structured NAV data onto blockchains, ensuring consistency and accuracy. It also established automated data routing via smart contracts, promoting dynamic data management and preventing fragmentation through Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP). 
Clients gained the ability to consume price and rate data in real-time through new interfaces, including APIs and smart contracts. The new data consumption methods include real-time API services and smart contracts designed for single funds or bulk fund groups, enabling instant updates and facilitating various use cases, such as automated portfolio rebalancing. 
Once fully deployed, Smart NAV will expand the scope of data dissemination to include key reference data and other blockchain-triggered workflows. This infrastructure will provide a foundation for more streamlined and efficient operational processes across the financial industry, as tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) like bonds, funds, and traditional investments has become one of the most sought-after use cases for blockchain technology.
