Securities are issued into CSDs. The integrity of every issue of securities is safeguarded by CSDs. Ownership of securities is recorded by CSDs. Transactions in securities are settled by CSDs. Securities are serviced by CSDs.

So, if it happens, tokenisation will either disrupt or transform or eliminate these functions. It is therefore both an existential threat and an exciting opportunity for CSDs. What tokenisation is not is something that CSDs can afford to ignore.

Attendees will hear speakers make the case for and against investing in tokenisation capabilities now. They will also be given the opportunity to vote on the Motion before the debate and again after the debate, to test whether minds were changed by the arguments.
