EY has been ranked third in HFS Research's annual Top 10 Enterprise Blockchain Services Report, based on the organization's bold public blockchain market vision and software development-led go-to-market strategy. HFS, a technology analyst firm focused on defining the future of business operations, assessed 13 leading blockchain service providers on core criteria, including ability to execute on blockchain engagements, scale and growth, innovation, and voice of the customer, recognizing the top 10 providers that best met these standards.

EY was also ranked a top-three performer in innovation as it relates to developing blockchain solutions. In the ranking, HFS recognized EY for its strength in deep integration of business process designs with audit, tax and compliance requirements, noting that the global organization's blockchain solutions include the capabilities that help enterprises transact securely, safely and in full regulatory compliance on both private and public blockchains.
