Why Tokenize RWA With Chintai?

Real World Asset Tokenization

Ernst & Young-Parthenon “Asset Tokenization”, Sept. 2023

There are three fundamental reasons to tokenize Real World Assets (#RWA) with Chintai:

  1. Fully licensed to issue and trade all asset classes including securities
  2. Full reach into the entire projected $28.7tr RWA marketplace
  3. Comprehensive RWA platform for one-stop issuance and trading

Unlike other RWA competitors, @ChintaiNetwork has multiple licenses in two jurisdictions. Chintai holds two licenses from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) to issue and trade tokenized assets, including assets considered to be securities, with full reach into the RWA marketplace projected to be $28.7tr by 2030. A third MAS custodial license is pending, and another VASP license is awaiting final approval to operate in British Virgin Islands (BVI). The Global Economy ranked Singapore the highest-quality regulator in 2021, and Singapore has consistently remained a top-5 financial hub. Successful RWA platforms must be properly licensed and maintain ongoing regulatory compliance throughout the technology stack and business operation.

When deciding on a partner to tokenize and subsequently trade RWA ask yourself these questions:

  1. Is your partner licensed to issue and trade RWA, since distinct licenses are required to legally issue and subsequently trade security tokens, representing over 80% of the entire RWA market projected to be $28.7tr by 2030?
  2. Moreover, are they licensed to operate in more than one jurisdiction?
  3. Does their RWA platform flexibly issue and trade RWA in every asset class, including equities, bonds, real-estate, carbon credits, commodities and exotic assets (think: Coinbase)?
  4. Does their RWA platform handle all asset-specific lifecycle operations on-chain — for example, equity tokens have voting rights, pay dividends and can split, bond tokens have coupon payments and default criteria, along with other distinct operations that characterize asset classes like real-estate and carbon credit tokens?
  5. Does their RWA platform provide full service white label services so clients can customize their own branded websites to onboard new investors, dynamically issue and trade RWA (think: Shopify)?
  6. Does their RWA platform both simplify and reduce the costly issuance experience clients face when creating RWA by up to 70%, provide instant clearing and settlement, offer clear and competitive fee structure, remove all middlemen and external vendors?
  7. Does their RWA platform offer a low-friction user experience (UX) for issuers and investors, with powerful multi-signature RSA account security, lost key support and token recovery?
  8. Does their RWA platform continuously monitor and apply regulatory compliance rules against every transaction on-chain, using AI to effectively detect and flag suspicious trading activity?
  9. Does their RWA blockchain provide sub-second transaction finality at scale, operating reliably and economically with low transaction (gas) costs?
  10. Does their RWA platform operate entirely on a permissioned blockchain with full KYC/AML for retail, accredited, expert and institutional investors, no third-party L2 or other external dependencies to ensure maximum security, reliability and regulatory compliance, and manage the entire tokenized asset lifecycle on-chain, from issuance and trading through maturity?

If the entire lifecycle of a digital asset isn’t entirely on-chain, then there’s no reason to use a blockchain in the first place.

Chintai Checks All The Boxes

Chintai has created a comprehensive and fully licensed blockchain solution that modernizes capital markets for asset managers, banks and enterprise. Driven by institutional client requirements, Chintai’s RWA platform offers a combined Coinbase and Shopify model designed to provide clients increased competitive advantage by bringing RWA to market faster at reduced cost compared to traditional financial avenues.

Chintai has been granted both Capital Markets and Market Operator licenses from the Monetary Authority of Singapore. Another license is awaiting final approval (December, 2023) to operate in British Virgin Islands (BVI). The platform operates on a single private, permissioned L1 blockchain. Everything runs on-chain — issuance, trading and automated compliance — with very low transaction cost, no L2 dependencies, no other external points of failure, no added slowness or added cost executing transactions elsewhere off-chain. No other RWA platform operates as reliably at scale, nor at such a low operating cost.

Is there any other RWA platform available today offering comprehensive issuance, trading and automated compliance capability?
