This session will cast a spotlight on the progress made on tokenisation platforms, issuances and money market funds as the financial services industry evolves. Leaders will also chart the collaboration needed to mobilise these assets, drive adoption, and create the blueprint to move these projects to production in the near team.

This roundtable reflects Elevandi’s commitment to advancing adoption of frontier technologies.

In today's rapidly evolving financial landscape, the concept of tokenisation is helping to reshape traditional financial instruments issued by sovereign and corporate entities. The transformative potential is exemplified by several digital bonds issuances as part of Project Helvetia Phase III. Also, Project Promissa aims to tokenise promissory notes that are instrumental in raising funds for the World Bank and other International Financial Institutions.

The roundtable will bring together participants from the public and private sectors, the legal and regulatory community, and financial market infrastructures. It will explore the following aspects:
- The transformative impact of tokenising financial instruments, such as liquidity, accessibility, transparency, and efficiency.
- The multifaceted challenges of tokenisation, ranging from technical aspects such as security, privacy and interoperability, to regulation and compliance and coordination between diverse actors in the financial markets.

The objectives of this roundtable operating under the theme of Decoding Digital Assets and Payments are to i) understand the transformative impact of tokenisation and explore challenges and solutions, ii) promote collaboration and coordination between different stakeholders and iii) map the way forward by identifying opportunities and risks.
