The inaugural Global Digital Finance #Tokenization Forum last Thursday saw a remarkable debut, with a turnout of over 120 attendees, comprising major buy-side and sell-side institutions as well as prominent FinTech companies, and a brilliant fireside chat with Tokeny's Daniel Coheur and abrdn's Duncan Moir. Some of my takeaways from the session are: 💬 Institutional adoption of real-world asset tokenization is driven by its technology benefits, including transparency, auditability, and efficiency in various asset classes. 💬 The size and diversity of the tokenizable market is fuelling institutional interest. 💬 Demand stems from both institutional and high net worth investors seeking access to regulated assets and liquidity through tokenization. 💬 The market has witnessed a transition from proof of concepts to production, with strong anticipated growth in market cap across asset classes. 💬 Push factors like changing investor expectations and compressed margins, along with pull factors such as liquidity fragmentation and technology assessment, drive asset managers towards exploring tokenization for operational efficiencies and market access. Thank you to our co-chairs Archax's Breige Tinnelly and Ownera's Anthony Woolley for driving thought leadership in this space and our community.

That the retail investment space is growing, especially in Europe, driven by the growth of digital players, is nothing new. I’ve mentioned this already a couple of times. But how different perspectives across the financial industry are looking at this development is not something you can read every day. Therefore, I’m really impressed with the white paper from Euroclear where the current developments in the retail investment space are outlined and described by many industry players, including me. A consolidation of viewpoints that would make an attractive read for any fintech enthusiast. This paper shows the role of retail when it comes to investing in ETFs and how the historical savings driven culture in Europe is changing to a more investment driven culture, largely driven by the newer generations. Building wealth for the future is something people should start with at an early age and we at BUX see that people are starting earlier and earlier with building an investment portfolio. Thank you for putting this together Mohamed M. Please find the white paper here 👇 Enjoy the read! #fintech #investment #whitepaper

At Figment's recent Digital Asset Sidebar event, Wee Kian Lim, CEO of DBS Digital Exchange, shared "We're observing changes in the digital asset space. As institutional adoption grows, regulatory frameworks are developing in parallel and these are shaping a more professionally-run landscape for participants." Other key areas that the ecosystem is focusing on include developing institutional products, innovating new blockchain-based financial services and grooming talent within the thriving tech community in APAC. These trends, according to the panellists, contribute to APAC's role in the evolving digital asset ecosystem. #DigitalAssets #FinancialInnovation #InstitutionalCrypto #AssetTokenisation
