The tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) is no longer a theoretical framework. For asset owners and issuers, it has become a practical issue of structure, governance, and recognition by regulatory authorities, a matter increasingly being addressed at the board and shareholder level rather than in innovation labs.
This transformation is most evident in the UAE, where regulatory regimes (rules and frameworks for overseeing financial activities), market infrastructure (systems enabling the trading and settlement of financial assets), and institutional capital (large-scale investments from organizations such as funds or banks) have converged to make the digitization of assets a reality rather than an experiment.
Therefore, the tokenization of risk assets (RWA tokenisation) is being evaluated not as a technological initiative, but as an activity in the capital markets and asset structuring.
Mission: From feasibility to a detailed execution-ready tokenization plan
At the institutional level, tokenization does not begin with the design of the Token. It starts with feasibility, specifically whether a tokenization structure can be built in a way that is legal, licensed by a reputable regulatory authority, and most importantly, commercially viable in the long term.
