Custody Approval Workflow for Token Issuance

The Custody Approval Workflow for Token Issuance is a GLIK AI template designed to coordinate the internal approval process required before triggering custody operations for asset issuance — whether for tokenized securities, on-chain gold, or other regulated RWAs.

This template supports multi-departmental sign-off, integrates with document repositories and risk checks, and can optionally trigger a smart contract or REST-based custody API once final clearance is granted.

This part of the Custody Approval Workflow handles multi-agent decision-making, where Custody, Legal, Compliance, and Ops agents independently review the issuance request after input normalization. If all approve, the flow proceeds; otherwise, it routes to an Escalation Reviewer. The final block compiles all decisions and metadata into a structured approval log for downstream issuance or audit.

Use Case Context

Many asset managers, tokenization teams, and legal/compliance departments must complete several steps before releasing control to a qualified custodian. These steps often include:

• Verifying investor accreditation status

• Collecting and validating required legal documents

• Approving asset eligibility under specific regulatory regimes

• Confirming readiness from compliance, finance, and product teams

• Logging internal consent from legal counsel or regulatory affairs

This template orchestrates these steps into a structured, auditable approval chain — streamlining internal coordination and reducing issuance risk.
