Abstract: A distributed private ledger function of a server of a first consortium member receives data representing an alias for one of its customers from the customer and also receives data that represents an alias for a customer of a second member replicated by a distributed private ledger function of a server of the second member to all members of the consortium. Thereafter, the distributed private ledger function of the first member's server identifies a recipient account of the second member's customer based on an account pointer associated with the alias of the second member's customer and initiates a transfer of funds from a source account of the first member's customer corresponding to an account pointer associated with the alias for the first member's customer to the identified recipient account of the second member's customer.
