Similar events have taken place in New York City and London. But the upcoming event reaching Singapore signifies a growing interest for digital securities in the Asian market.
Securitize, for example, formed a partnership with Coinstreet and STO Global-X to bring digital securities to Asia. The firm then partnered with the Japan Security Token Association to strengthen its presence in Asia.
Do you think the Asian market will implement digital securities? If so, which jurisdictions in particular? We’d like to know your thoughts in the comments section below.
