The Tokenisation of Real-World Assets

Jersey offers a unique combination of stability, regulatory clarity and tax advantages, making it the ideal jurisdiction for the tokenisation of real-world assets (RWAs). Our Island has an established approach for considering applications involving token-generating events and is very much open for business.

Jersey's solution is proven, flexible and offers regulatory clarity

The tokenised assets market is predicted to become a US$16 trillion industry by 2030 (BCG and ADDX). Jersey is ideally placed to support this new financial frontier – we are a real-world assets (RWAs) jurisdiction and our activity in the digitisation space is growing rapidly.

Jersey treats tokenisation in the same way as securitisation vehicles. We have a long history of collateralised loan obligation (CLO) securitisation structures and institutions are well-versed in the formation of securitisation vehicles.

Addendum – Digitisation Terminology

In 2023, Jersey adopted the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) definition of ‘Virtual Assets’ (VAs) and ‘Virtual Asset Service Providers’ (VASPs), which ensured that VASPs were brought within scope of our Anti Money Laundering (AML), countering the financing of terrorism (CFT), and countering proliferation financing (CPF) regulation. Alternative definitions and language, including digital assets and crypto assets, are used widely in the international financial services industry and are included here, and this also serves to ensure that the content is accessible to all.
