Israel Diamonds Financial Exchange
Natural diamonds, as a financial asset.
IDFE is building the infrastructure to buy, hold and resell a single natural diamond with the clarity, custody and liquidity of a listed security.
The opportunity
The question is no longer if natural diamonds become a financial asset, but when.
A new asset class
Natural diamonds will be traded as a commodity and a financial asset. The market is ready for the first credible exchange.
The technology exists
Pricing, digitization, onboarding and payments: every building block needed for such an exchange is available today.
A clear line from lab-grown
The natural diamond industry needs a way to set natural stones apart. A financial market built only for natural diamonds draws that line.
First mover leads
The first company to seize this opportunity correctly will lead a new field, in both finance and diamonds.
The platform
One diamond, held and traded like a share.
Diamonds Fintech is developing two core technologies, with the services around them that a regulated asset requires.
Technology
Single Diamond Pricing Algorithm
Proprietary pricing for an individual natural diamond, the foundation of a transparent market.
Technology
B2B2C trading platform
Buy a single diamond, keep it in a vault, and resell it when you choose.
Onboarding
KYC and AML
Investors are identified and verified before they trade, to the standard of financial institutions.
Asset
Digitized ownership
Each diamond is recorded as a digital asset, so ownership can move without the stone leaving the vault.
Payments
Fiat and crypto
Settlement in traditional currencies and in digital assets.
Ecosystem
Third-party integration
Laboratories, certification, storage, insurance and logistics connected through one platform.
The structure
Three pillars, one exchange.
The structure we are building brings together the technology company and its consortium, a major capital partner, and the Israeli diamond industry.
The consortium
Around the technology, a group of companies with a long-term interest in the field, each bound by agreement:
- Management and technology · the platform, the algorithm, leadership
- Onboarding · synchronization with the B2B diamond trade
- Secondary market · resale of diamonds
- Digitization · recording assets on a ledger
- Payments · fiat and crypto providers
- Banking, storage, transport and insurance
- Audit and advisory
What comes next
Liquidity and transparency open two more instruments.
Shared investment
One diamond, owned by many. Investors hold a share of a single stone.
A diamond ETF
The instrument that lets institutions trade natural diamonds and brings the endorsement of leading financial houses.
