“We believe the next step going forward will be the tokenization of financial assets, and that means every stock, every bond […] will be on one general ledger”, Larry Fink, chairman and CEO of BlackRock says. ¹

Larry Fink’s forecast underscores that financial markets are transforming fundamentally, driven by the immense potential of Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) and asset tokenization.

As both technology and regulation evolve rapidly, DLT-based assets in Europe are projected to grow into a trillion-euro market. This maturing landscape necessitates strategic action from financial institutions to fully capitalize on the massive potential. Significant cost reductions, optimized processes, and a new dimension of speed are now within tangible reach.

However, successfully navigating this dynamic environment - characterized by various market participants, diverse integration approaches, and a growing number of asset classes - leads established institutions to complex challenges.

Discover how financial institutions can build the technical and operational foundation needed to unlock the full efficiency potential of DLT — enabling greater flexibility, streamlined processes, and strategic independence.
