UNITED KINGDOM: LSEG Launches DMI for Private Funds

Monday September 15 2025

On 15^th September 2025, the London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) announced that it has launched its Digital Markets Infrastructure (“DMI”) platform for private funds and facilitated its first transaction.

LSEG will ensure that this platform is interoperable with current market solutions in distributed ledger technology as well as traditional finance, fully utilising a range of the group’s products and services, including Workspace.

Developed in collaboration with Microsoft, DMI is aligned with LSEG’s goal of being the first global exchange group to support customers across the full funding continuum, alongside other group initiatives such as the Private Securities Market. Private funds is the first asset class to benefit from the DMI platform, with expansion to additional asset classes planned.

DMI adopts an open and interoperable philosophy. It brings together participants from across the international market to broaden distribution, raise capital, increase liquidity, and service assets within a trusted and regulated environment.

The DMI platform is built on Microsoft Azure, thus adding to its scalability and resilience. Its design accelerates innovation, while maintaining high levels of security. LSEG and Microsoft will continue their collaboration to develop and scale the platform.

As part of the initial offering, private funds admitted to DMI will be discoverable by Workspace’s users as part of their day-to-day workflow, enabling General Partners to interact at scale with professional investors on a platform these investors already use, and they in turn will be able to discover, analyse, and access new private market investment opportunities that were previously hard to reach.
