A financial workflow rarely belongs to a single system. Screening, payments and settlement can require contributions from several institutions, each with information it must protect.
On 29 September 2026, Silence Laboratories joined the LF Decentralized Trust programme at Sibos in Miami with a session on Oblivious Workflows in Multi-Agentic Systems. Jay Prakash was among the featured speakers in the LFDT programme.
Collaboration across private inputs
The session’s subject reflects a central problem for financial agents: how can participants contribute to a shared decision without disclosing all the information they hold?
Oblivious workflows approach that problem through private computation. Participants agree on the function to evaluate and the output to release, while the underlying inputs remain protected within the computation.
Connecting the architecture to finance
For an institution designing an agent workflow, the useful questions are concrete. Which parties are involved? What authority does each agent have? What information is necessary for the decision, and what should remain private afterwards?
These questions connect our work on encrypted computation and AP3 with the operational concerns of banks and financial infrastructure providers.
Our Sibos week activity also included two DeCompute Miami roundtables co-hosted with LF Decentralized Trust. Those sessions explored the related requirements of institutional custody and private agent collaboration in greater depth.
