About Us
HELIX is the first RWA DeFi protocol leveraging Big-data & AI to connect on-chain investors to sustainable and uncorrelated yields from real-world private credit.
Winner of the Tokenized Debt & Bond Award at the 2023 TADS Awards, HELIX was born out of Helicap, a leading ASEAN private debt and credit analytics platform known for its impressive track record of more than US$300 million in deal volume with zero defaults. HELIX distinguishes itself through its strong Web2 institutional backing, proprietary Big Data credit analytics, a robust deal origination pipeline, planned decentralized credit scoring and a secondary loan marketplace, variable interest products, and solid investor support.
