Nov 12th: Tokenisation at the Crossroads: Reshaping Capital Markets Amid Regulation and Innovation


Listen Later

What if you could slice up your house like a pizza and sell pieces of it?


That's essentially what tokenization is doing to financial markets right now.


James Tylee breaks down how blockchain is transforming everything from stocks and bonds to real estate and gold. The numbers are staggering: tokenized funds could slash operating costs by 23%, potentially saving the asset management industry $135 billion annually according to Callistone research. (That's real money we're talking about here.) Larry Fink's insights reveal how this technology enables lightning-fast settlements and automated smart contracts that boost money velocity across the economy.


Here's where it gets interesting for everyday people. Through fractionalization, tokenization democratizes access to assets that were previously locked away from regular investors. The technology is already working—Franklin Templeton is successfully tokenizing real-world assets, and companies like Visa use it extensively.


However, the UK market faces a significant challenge. With 61% of respondents pointing to regulatory uncertainty as the main obstacle, it's clear that regulatory uncertainty is holding back broader adoption. The speakers advocate for smart public-private partnerships to establish clear compliance frameworks rather than relying on government intervention alone.


Beyond traditional assets, tokenization could let homeowners sell carbon credits from their solar panels directly on peer-to-peer networks. Why should only Tesla pocket billions from carbon credits?
