Bps on facilities on the tape
They sell a faster close to administrators, not access to a crowd.

Nia Voss will not run a public sale on this pad. The listing exists because of that sentence.
Glen — A system of record for private-credit funds and desks: tapes, RFQs, or covenants that update when a borrower files. The buyers already have a book. This is plumbing, not a venue that matches strangers.
Closed on this board. Any capital event was completed with the issuer’s own providers. RCA Pad took 0%.
Closed. The live conversation is over. The pack remains as archive.
Diligence, not a prospectus. RCA Pad does not allocate, take orders, or close funding. If this company raises, it raises with its own counsel.

The wedge
They sell a faster close to administrators, not access to a crowd.
Why the desk took it
Retail was never in the deck. Rare.
Traction
Founded 2024, headquartered in Edinburgh. 3 named pilots on file (identities redacted in public). 23 nodes or connected surfaces reported. Desk diligence score 93/100. A treasurer at a bank that already settles — not a crypto-native desk. A dual-control drill exists on paper. We have not watched it live yet — that is the next ask.
Next 12 months
Closed RFQ wires do this slowly. Glen does it as a record. They sell a fee the customer already pays a slower vendor for. TAM is that invoice, not a token float.
The brief
Someone in Edinburgh already renewed a slower vendor this year. Glen is the conversation that happens before they do it again. Miss this cycle and you explain the next one.
Glen exists because the incumbent brand will not staff the unglamorous middle of Private credit. The product is that middle. The token, if it ever exists, is not the product — and is not for sale here. The people in the queue already understood the difference.
On a Tuesday in Edinburgh, an exception posts back into the customer’s existing case system. Nobody opens a side spreadsheet. That is the product: the night someone in ops does not stay late.
From the founder
This communication is not an offer. Participation mechanics do not exist on this pad. If a later reader treats the public stack as the offer, the stack was already wrong.
From counsel
We will not describe this as Reg CA-compliant, MiCA-stickered, or FCA-authorised. Issuers retain their own counsel in every relevant jurisdiction.
From the screen
US persons are outside the audience. A form that asks “are you accredited?” without verification is not an exemption.
The window
Attention is the scarce asset. 4 asks this week are already spending it.
0% of proceeds. Fixed fee. The incentive is a clean campaign — not a raise.
Read it once, properly, while the number is still green. Then decide.
Window
Closed
Closed. History only — not a place to buy.
US came off the site in the first session. We did not argue. We are not children.

Open-source looks free until the auditor asks who attests. Glen has an answer.

The bet
They sell a faster close to administrators, not access to a crowd.
They sell a faster close to administrators, not access to a crowd.
Allocators want daily marks and covenant visibility. Banks want to originate without building a chain team. The first honest tape that does not pretend to be an exchange will be paid for as software.
Private credit AUM is measured in trillions. The software take-rate is small. The switching cost, once a tape is the record, is not.
Versus the field
The incumbent brand sells the relationship. Glen sells the job the brand will not staff. A protocol pitch is the thing this company has already refused. Open-source looks free until the auditor asks who attests.
Named: Edinburgh, United Kingdom. Off-limits: Mainland China retail, United States. A US person hearing an offering communication is a US problem even if the company sits in Edinburgh. Blocking an IP and taking a US Telegram admin is not a block.

Securities memo on the tape itself — is the record a security? Write it down.
A dual-control drill exists on paper. We have not watched it live yet — that is the next ask.
Growth money would extend the record to a second geography, still permissioned.
Traction
Founded 2024, headquartered in Edinburgh. 3 named pilots on file (identities redacted in public). 23 nodes or connected surfaces reported. Desk diligence score 93/100.

Readiness
Six things a serious buyer asks. 100 is “ready to take to counsel and a customer.”
Risks
The one that actually kills it
Unnamed counsel is how companies die in diligence. Edinburgh · closed private round has to be a memo you can file, not a slogan on the hero.
The moment this looks like a public book, it is a venue. This pad will not list that.
Who owns the tape when a fund leaves? If that is unsigned, the enterprise value is a conversation.
A default cluster will test whether the product is a record or a reputation.
Retail is prohibited. Any ‘access token’ story is a different company.
If a fund leaves and the tape stays, who owns the history? Unsigned, the enterprise value is a conversation.
The administrator, CCP, scheme or custodian can ship this as a checkbox. Glen has to be cheaper or faster before that happens.

Who can decide
Nia Voss (Chief executive) will take a 30-minute call and decide budget. If the only person who can accept “we are not opening a sale” is a silent co-founder in another time zone, this company would not be on the board.
A second counterparty writing into the record is the only network effect that counts. One customer is a consultancy. Two is a market.
