The effects of tokenization on capital markets and finance: a round table of the SEC

In a rapidly changing financial world, the concept of tokenization becomes increasingly relevant. A recently carried out round table of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) devoted itself to this topic and illuminated how the Integration of tokenized assets transforms the capital markets and finance.

tokenization describes the process in which real assets are converted into digital tokens that are stored on a blockchain. This innovative method makes it possible to efficiently transfer, secure and act assets. The round table brought leading experts together to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of these new technologies.

Traditional financial giants are increasingly interested in the integration of tokenized assets in their business models. This development could not only increase the liquidity of assets, but also create new investment opportunities for investors. Through tokenization, for example, real estate, works of art or even company shares can be shared and traded in fractions, which facilitates access for a broader investor base.

The discussion of the SEC also emphasized which regulatory challenges are associated with tokenization. It is of crucial importance that the existing laws and regulations are adapted to the new circumstances in order not to ensure the security of investors and not to hinder innovations.
