Torque Platform Administration

The Torque administration workspace administers all funds and issuers through the Django admin surface. It supports platform-wide user, permission, compliance, wallet, transaction, and exception administration.

This guide is for Administrator users and technical readers. Issuer users create and service funds in the Issuer workspace. Platform administration remains platform-wide.

Getting Started

• Access URL: http://wd-admin-web.webdevelop.ll:8085/admin/

• Login: Contact our system administrator for VPN set up. Under VPN use the credentials provided by our system administrator.

• Main Dashboard: The main dashboard gives you an at-a-glance view of platform activity. The left sidebar is organized into the core modules detailed in this guide.

Module 1: Asset Digitization & Management Suite

This module provides the tools to handle a fund's lifecycle, from off-chain legal documents to on-chain tokens.

• Offers: This is the primary module for creating and structuring funds. Each `Offer` record is the technical record for a fund or asset program, such as a single real estate property, a portfolio of assets (like various corporate debts or municipal bonds), or equity in a private company.

  • Key Fields: Title, Asset Type, Security Type, Funding Goal, Minimum Investment, Legal Name, Legal Documents, Smart Contract Address.

  • Workflow: Issuer owns the normal fund launch. Administrator users can create, inspect, and correct the technical Offer record and its terms through authorized platform administration.

• Filer: Manages the regulatory and legal documents associated with each fund. This is the bridge between the off-chain legal framework and the on-chain token.

  • Purpose: A repository for fund legal documents, investment agreements, and regulatory filings.

• EVM Smart Contracts: Manages the on-chain representation of the asset via smart contracts.

  • Purpose: Provides a simplified interface for deploying and managing the smart contracts that govern the tokenized asset.

Module 2: Investor & Compliance Engine

This module records Investor compliance from initial KYC and AML and Accreditation onboarding through ongoing monitoring.

• Profiles: This is the central record for an Investor's identity, eligibility, and ongoing compliance status, serving as the source record for KYC, Accreditation, and AML data.

  • Key Fields: Profile Type, KYC Status, Accreditation Status, Accreditation Verification Date.

  • Jurisdiction-Specific Questionnaires: The system supports dynamic, rules-based questionnaires to determine investor suitability and sophistication under various regulatory frameworks (e.g., MiFID, Reg CF).

  • Periodic Re-verification: The system is configured to automatically trigger accreditation re-verification to ensure all compliance data remains current.

  • Workflow: New Investors appear here with a "New" KYC & Accreditation status. The compliance team uses this module to review status changes and legal documents when applicable.

• Users: The core account model that controls login access for Investors and Administrator users. It is directly linked to a profile.

• Groups: Defines User roles and permissions, ensuring staff members only have access to the modules relevant to their roles.

• EVM Smart Contracts: Only Investors who pass all off-chain compliance checks are permitted to hold or receive the token on the blockchain. The smart contract enforces holding periods or restricts transfers to only other allow-listed Crypto Wallets, depending on the fund's regulatory requirements.

Module 3: Post-Issuance & Corporate Actions

This module manages the ongoing administration of tokenized assets and the financial relationship with Investors.

• Investments: A record of each Investor's commitment to a specific `Offer`. This tracks the resulting holding.

• Wallets & Transactions: These models expose distinct off-chain and on-chain records to Administrator users while presenting the related activity in one Investor experience.

  • Wallets: The system manages two interconnected wallet types that are presented as a single, unified balance to the end-user:

    • Electronic Wallet (Off-Chain): The internal ledger for managing fiat currency balances that originate from traditional payment methods via electronic wallet and direct bank account.

    • Crypto Wallet (On-Chain): The Investor's blockchain-native wallet that holds the actual digital assets and security tokens, providing a verifiable on-chain record of ownership.

  • Transactions: A unified transaction ledger that provides a complete audit trail of all financial movements. To ensure precise reconciliation, the ledger clearly distinguishes between:

    • Off-Chain Transactions: Fiat deposits, withdrawals, and internal transfers, and distributions.

    • EVM Transfers (On-Chain Transactions): Token issuance, transfers, and smart contract interactions like dividend distributions.

• Distributions & Dividends: This service records corporate actions and supports payouts through configured fiat or on-chain rails.

  • Automated Calculation: The system automatically calculates each token holder's precise share of a distribution based on their ownership percentage recorded in the investment model.

  • Hybrid Payout Methods: Administrator users can execute payments through two distinct channels:

    • Off-Chain Distributions (via Fiat): Payouts can be credited as traditional currency to an Investor's Electronic Wallet. These funds are then available for the Investor to withdraw via standard banking methods.

    • On-Chain Distributions (via Smart Contract): Payouts can be sent directly to an Investor's Crypto Wallet through the configured smart contract.

  • Workflow: To issue a dividend, you would use this tool to calculate each holder's share based on their investment record and initiate Transactions to their Wallets. Notifications are sent automatically.

• Regulatory Communication: To ensure full compliance with communication requirements, the engine has a dedicated system for managing and tracking all regulatory-mandated investor email and in-app notifications.

  • Automated Triggers: The system automatically sends required notifications based on compliance events, such as profile status changes (e.g., KYC approval/rejection), document submissions, and transaction flags.

  • Template Management: Compliance teams can create and manage pre-approved email and notification templates for various regulatory scenarios, ensuring consistent messaging.

• (Future) Governance & Voting: TBD

Module 4: Advanced Analytics & Monitoring

This module combines Investor activity, fund performance metrics, and blockchain records for administrative review.

• Fund and Asset Performance Dashboard:

  • Purpose: This is the main view for fund and asset monitoring. It features data visualizations of important Key Performance Indicators (KPIs):

    • Total Value Locked (TVL): The total value of assets currently tokenized.

    • On-Chain Issuance Volume: The volume of new assets tokenized over a specific period.

    • Holder Distribution: Insights into the number of unique investors.

    • Transaction Volume: Real-time data on the volume of token transfers.

  • Underlying Asset Transparency: Provides verified data on the off-chain collateral, linking to custodian reports and legal frameworks stored in the Filer.

• System Health & Audit Trail:

  • Eventlogs: A human-readable audit trail of all significant actions taken by users and administrators. Essential for security and compliance audits.

  • Applogs: Technical logs for developers to monitor application health and troubleshoot issues.

  • Webhooks: Manages automated data pushes to external systems (e.g., CRM, accounting software).
