Governance & Control Validation
Evaluation of protocol governance, decision-making structures, key management, and administrative controls across your distributed system or digital asset platform.
Codema Global Rating certification for tokenization platforms, digital asset custodians, and distributed ledger ecosystems — conducted by EONTA as Codema Accredited Partner (APFA, Codema Global Rating SAGL) with global authorization and no territorial limits. Assessments apply voluntary technical protocols RP2110/1 and RP2120/1, with normative references to MiCA, FATF, ISO 27001, and ISO 37301. Each evaluation is assigned a unique CRPA identifier by Codema — the sole valid reference for its existence, traceability and recognition under the Codema framework.
The challenge
Institutional investors, regulators, and counterparties require documented evidence of governance, security, and operational integrity — not cryptographic claims alone. EONTA conducts Codema Global Rating evaluations as an Accredited Partner under the APFA with Codema Global Rating SAGL — applying voluntary technical protocols RP2110/1 (node independence and IT compliance) and RP2120/1 (fifteen auditable RWA tokenization domains), drawing on normative references including MiCA, DORA, FATF, ISO 27001, ISO 37301, and ISO 22739. The Codema methodology has a 15-year institutional lineage — originating in regulated pharma supply chain evaluation since 2009, developed with SUPSI, and today applied by organisations including CertX (SGS Group). Each evaluation is registered in the Codema centralized database with a unique CRPA identifier: the sole valid reference for its existence, traceability, and recognition.
Institutional investors, fund administrators, and regulated banking counterparties operating in digital asset ecosystems require the same evidence-based due diligence they apply to traditional financial infrastructure. For Real-World Asset tokenization, RP2120/1 defines fifteen auditable domains — from ownership and custody to valuation, encumbrances, ESG claims, and governance independence — grounded in FATF Recommendations, MiCA disclosure requirements, ISO 55000 asset management principles, and ISO 31000 risk management. Cryptographic correctness alone does not satisfy compliance teams, legal counsel, or investment committees. A Codema Global Rating does.
Distributed ledger infrastructures rely on node operators whose independence, governance, and IT integrity directly determine network security and decentralisation. Without structured assessment against a voluntary certification scheme such as Codema RP2110/1 — which incorporates MiCA governance standards, FATF beneficial ownership requirements, ISO 37301 compliance management, and ISO/IEC 27001 IT controls — stakeholders cannot reliably determine whether independence is real or merely declared. Demonstrating verified node-level trust, through a Codema certificate issued by a Codema Accredited Partner, has become a commercial and governance prerequisite.
Engagement models
EONTA operates as Codema Accredited Partner — formally designated "Certification Body or Accredited Partner" under the APFA with Codema Global Rating SAGL — with global authorization and no territorial limits. The Codema framework is a voluntary technical scheme with over 15 years of institutional history, originating from regulated pharma supply chain evaluation and extended to blockchain, cloud, and digital asset infrastructure through protocols developed with SUPSI and applied by organisations including CertX (SGS Group). EONTA is authorized under RP2100 (Blockchain reference), RP2110/1 (Node Independence), RP2120/1 (RWA Tokenization), RP2150, and RP2200 (Cloud services). Each completed evaluation is registered in the Codema centralized database and assigned a unique CRPA identifier — the sole valid reference for its traceability and recognition.

Why EONTA
EONTA holds an Accredited Partner Framework Agreement (APFA) with Codema Global Rating SAGL — formally designated as "Certification Body or Accredited Partner" under the APFA — with global authorization and no territorial limits. The Codema evaluation methodology has over 15 years of track record: founded in 2009 as Codema Pharma (Brussels) as a preferred evaluation partner to European regulators in pharmaceutical supply chains, the same protocol-based framework was extended to blockchain, cloud, and digital asset infrastructure. Codema protocols were developed in collaboration with SUPSI (University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland) and are applied by organizations including CertX — part of the SGS Group, the world's leading testing, inspection, and certification company. Both RP2110/1 and RP2120/1 draw on internationally recognised normative references — MiCA, DORA, FATF, ISO 27001, ISO 37301, and ISO 22739 — ensuring a Codema certificate carries a consistent, comparable meaning for counterparties reviewing it under the Codema framework.
A Codema Global Rating requires both technical rigour and regulatory substance. RP2110/1 addresses node-layer integrity: legal identity, UBO transparency, IT compliance, financial independence, and sustainability. RP2120/1 addresses asset-layer integrity across fifteen auditable domains — with additional asset-family annexes applied where Codema has published them. EONTA is also authorized under RP2100 (Blockchain reference protocol), RP2150, and RP2200 (Cloud services — IaaS, PaaS, SaaS). Codema protocols are living documents under monthly revision through open expert working groups open to sector associations, regulators, and academic institutions. EONTA delivers all applicable evaluations in a single coordinated engagement, led by a Codema-qualified Lead Auditor.
