Tokenisation of real world assets (RWAs) offers transformative potential, and is expected to impact both financial services and the broader economy. However, despite this promise of potential, most RWA tokenisation projects are still in the pilot or experimental phase. Integrating tokenised RWAs into the mainstream economic and financial system also presents regulatory challenges, particularly in consumer protection, financial stability, and compliance. In this panel discussion, we bring together regulators, policymakers, and industry participants to discuss frameworks to support the commercial and institutional adoption of RWA tokenisation.
