Global Leadership in Digital Finance and Real-World Asset Innovation

Black Tie Holdings is a global fintech and digital asset management group committed to transforming how real assets are financed, tokenised, and traded. With three decades of experience in global trade and finance, the Group has evolved into a leader in regulated digital investment infrastructure — uniting property, treasury, reserves, and technology under one trusted framework.

Our Heritage

A Legacy of Enterprise and Innovation

The Black Tie story began in the early 1990s, rooted in a family enterprise that pioneered digital barter and trade exchange systems across Australia and the Asia Pacific. That foundation evolved through the development of BBX, one of the world’s longest-running business trade exchanges — and laid the groundwork for the emergence of Black Tie Holdings as a next-generation fintech and asset management group.

By combining traditional financial acumen with emerging blockchain technology, the Group continues to redefine how capital and assets interact in a digital world.

From exchange networks to asset tokenisation, our heritage is built on connection, trust, and transformation.

Vision Driven by Experience

At the helm of Black Tie Holdings is Caroline Macdonald, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, whose leadership has guided the Group’s transformation from its early digital trading roots to a globally recognised investment and technology organisation.

Caroline’s expertise spans over 30 years across:

• Fintech and digital currency exchange regulation

• Institutional and property fund management

• Blockchain innovation and Web3 integration

• Corporate governance and cross-border finance

She is supported by a multidisciplinary leadership team with backgrounds in finance, compliance, property, resources, technology, and governance, united by a commitment to sustainable innovation and long-term value creation.
