LSEG Launches DiSH to Enable 24/7 Tokenized Settlements
The new service is called LSEG Digital Settlement House, also known as DiSH, according to an official statement. The platform is designed to allow real-time settlement without the need to depend on traditional banking hours. Therefore, it is possible to get transactions done instantly with payment versus payment and delivery versus payment mechanisms.

DiSH operates using tokenized deposits from commercial banks that are registered on its ledger, referred to as DiSH Cash. As a result, commercial bank money can be moved instantaneously across supported currencies and jurisdictions.
Importantly, this structure supplies a real cash settlement leg for foreign exchange and digital asset transactions.

Moreover, market participants may use any connected, digital, or traditional asset to perform PvP or DvP settlements. In addition, the platform enables payment to be orchestrated across multiple interoperable networks.
DiSH Cash has accounts in participating commercial banks in the DiSH network. As a result, members have instant ownership of a commercial bank deposit held at any connected institution. This mechanism helps the constant flow of commercial bank money in the clock.
Furthermore, LSEG DiSH can be used for a settlement directly on its own ledger. Alternatively, it can serve as a notary to orchestrate settlement across external networks & asset classes. Therefore, the platform enables flexibility for institutions operating in the diverse financial ecosystem.
Platform Aims to Reduce Risk and Improve Liquidity Efficiency
By using LSEG DiSH, market participants can increase their use of assets that were previously hindered by the timing of their settlement. As a result of the above, cash, securities, and digital assets are put to use continuously.
In addition, the platform introduces liquidity management optimization tools. These tools allow intraday borrowing and lending, which allows institutions to better manage their obligations.
Settlement risk is also mitigated by the shorter settlement timelines and synchronized completion of the transactions. In addition, more collateral availability further enhances the risk management capabilities.
The DiSH launch comes after LSEG’s wider Digital Markets Infrastructure initiative. Notably, the company launched its DMI platform for tokenized private funds on September 15, 2025. Therefore, DiSH is a growth of LSEG’s digital asset strategy.
Previously, the platform was tested with a proof-of-concept on Canton Network. This initiative was between software firm Digital Asset and a consortium of financial institutions. During testing, participants were able to complete repo transactions, both cross-currency and multi-asset.
According to LSEG, these results proved interoperability and operational resilience under real market conditions. Consequently, the firm proceeded to a production introduction to institutional users. The development marks continued progress towards tokenized settlement solutions in global capital markets.
