Bridging traditional markets with regulated on-chain finance
Licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), DigiFT provides institutional-grade tokenization and trading of real-world assets (RWAs). The Tayang Group initiative will be the first to bring a Hong Kong–listed company’s shares onto a Singapore-regulated blockchain platform, setting a precedent for compliant, cross-market asset tokenization.
According to DigiFT Founder and CEO Henry Zhang, tokenization is reshaping global capital markets by enhancing accessibility, transparency, and efficiency.
“We’re proud to support the tokenization of Tayang Group shares, demonstrating how regulated frameworks can integrate traditional assets with digital finance while preserving market integrity,” Zhang stated.
Institutional access and global liquidity expansion
For Tayang Group, a diversified Hong Kong enterprise listed since 2007, the partnership signals a strategic step into the digital asset economy. Chairwoman Shi Qi noted that tokenization of listed equities highlights the growing convergence between traditional finance and blockchain-based systems, aligning with the company’s focus on innovation and shareholder value.
The initiative strengthens DigiFT’s position as a trusted partner for financial institutions pursuing regulated exposure to tokenized assets. By offering licensed issuance, trading, and settlement infrastructure, DigiFT continues to bridge conventional markets with on-chain liquidity — paving the way for institutional adoption of blockchain-based equity trading.
Notably, DigiFT recently received a custodial license from the Monetary Authority of Singapore, expanding its existing Capital Markets Services (CMS) license. The new authorization allows DigiFT to provide secure custody for capital market products, reinforcing its fully regulated approach to digital asset management. The move enhances security and regulatory compliance, reinforcing institutional confidence in blockchain-based financial instruments.
