A financial operations platform for institutions

One clear view of institutional operations

HOLD OS is one environment for owning, holding, trading and leasing assets. This page shows how the parts of the platform connect, and why that connection matters to an operations team.

Institution, customer and subaccount

HOLD OS starts from organizational structure. The institution sits at the top and sets the active assets, rules and operational authority. Customers hold private accounts that the institution creates and manages, and subaccounts are controlled within the same frame.

There is no public signup. Accounts are created through a private process at the institution’s discretion, and creating an account neither moves money nor grants financial authority on its own.

  1. Institution Sets assets, rules and authority
    1. Customer Private account created by the institution
      1. Subaccount Controlled account within the customer

Asset identity comes before any number

In HOLD OS every quantity belongs to a specific asset. Gold, Silver and Custom assets each have a stable identity, unit and precision of their own, and all of them use one shared financial core.

When the general administrator changes the active or default asset, earlier records do not change. A balance, contract or event recorded in Gold remains Gold; no record is converted to another asset or relabelled.

How activity flows through an account

Activity in an account follows a defined path, and every step is recorded in the same account with the same asset identity.

  1. Wallets

    Each asset has its own wallet and every account has one shared cash wallet; cash is recorded in whole toman.

  2. Reference price

    The institution records a manual reference price per asset unit; a reference price is not an approved trade quote.

  3. Request and approval

    A trade is requested with an explicit quantity and price and approved by someone with authority.

  4. Record

    The approved result is recorded against the same account and the same asset.

Trades and obligations, each in its place

Not every activity is a purchase or a sale. In asset leasing the institution manages an obligation that continues over time: the principal must come back, and rent is settled separately.

HOLD OS records these as two distinct obligations. Rent payments never reduce the principal, and the principal is returned in the same asset, unit and standard as the contract.

Leasing contract Parties, asset and approved terms

  • Principal Returned in full, in the same asset and unit
  • Rent A separate obligation under the approved policy

Who controls what

Authority in HOLD OS is explicit. Whether a user can see or perform an operation depends on their role, the account they are working in and the asset concerned.

Access to brand settings, or being an ordinary administrator, does not grant authority over the institution’s assets. Choosing the active assets belongs to the general administrator and is confirmed with the current password and, when enabled, Authenticator.

  • Role The user’s position in the institution
  • Account Where the operation takes place
  • Asset The asset the operation concerns

Permitted operation Only when all three agree
