Matt Ong is the founder and CEO of Ctrl Alt, a B2B tokenisation infrastructure provider that gives banks, asset managers and governments the rails to structure and distribute alternative assets — including private credit, real estate, infrastructure, funds and litigation finance — on blockchain. He launched the company in April 2022 after spending the first part of his career structuring and trading financial products at Morgan Stanley and Credit Suisse.

Matt graduated with a first-class degree in Economics from Loughborough University, with an undergraduate dissertation on breaking down barriers to film investing — an early indication of where his thinking on alternative-asset access would take him. He spent the bulk of his pre-Ctrl Alt career at Morgan Stanley, where he worked in Delta One Structured Products, before moving to Credit Suisse's Global Trading Solutions team. Both roles centred on the structuring and distribution of complex financial instruments to institutional clients, the same workflow Ctrl Alt now offers in tokenised form.

Ctrl Alt has tokenised more than $850 million in assets across real estate, private credit, funds and other alternative classes, and in 2025 secured direct authorisation from the Financial Conduct Authority — moving from an appointed-representative model to operating under its own permissions. The company is a participant in the Bank of England's Digital Securities Sandbox alongside SEI, which made a strategic investment in Ctrl Alt in April 2025. Headquartered in London, with offices in Belfast and Dubai, the team includes alumni from Morgan Stanley, Credit Suisse, UBS and Revolut.
