PACT Protocol has officially launched on the Aptos Network, introducing over $1 billion in on-chain assets to the high-performance blockchain. This strategic move, following nine months of collaboration with the Aptos Foundation, aims to enhance financial inclusion by providing fully on-chain lending and securitization infrastructure for licensed lenders in emerging markets.
The integration enables lenders to originate, securitize, and service loans more efficiently, fostering a transparent and scalable financial environment for borrowers, originators, and institutional investors. As the inaugural participant in the Aptos Foundation’s incubation pilot, PACT Protocol benefits from strategic and technical support provided by Aptos Labs.
On-chain credit infrastructure is revolutionizing global finance, particularly in regions where traditional banking services are inaccessible to approximately 85% of the population. By leveraging Aptos’ sub-second finality and minimal transaction fees, PACT aims to reduce borrowing costs and expand credit access in underserved communities worldwide.
Ash Pampati, Head of Ecosystem at Aptos, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating that it expands financial access to users in emerging markets globally. Solomon Tesfaye, Head of Capital Markets at Aptos Labs, highlighted that PACT’s integration offers a transparent and scalable solution, reducing costs and broadening credit opportunities for underserved communities.
PACT Protocol selected Aptos for its institutional-grade infrastructure, scalability, and adoption within the financial sector. The network’s support for native USDC and USDT, along with its capacity to handle high transaction volumes at low costs, ensures seamless credit flows while maintaining security and reliability through its Move programming language.
