Digital Assets Developments & Opportunities

Two-Part Programme for Private Bankers and Family Office Practitioners in Asia Format: Two sessions of 90 minutes each The programme moves from "what's changing" to "what to do about it." Singapore and Hong Kong are the anchors, as the main booking centres and family office hubs for this audience, with Japan, the Gulf and other markets brought in where they matter to Asian clients

Part 1: The Global Tokenisation Landscape Title: From Pilot to Production: Markets, Infrastructure and Regulation in 2026 and beyond Tokenisation is moving from pilot projects into regulated commercial activity across several jurisdictions, marking an important inflection point for digital assets in 2026. With Singapore and Hong Kong serving as key financial and family office hubs in Asia, developments in tokenised real-world assets, stablecoins and financial market infrastructure are creating new opportunities and considerations for financial institutions, private bankers, family offices and investors. RHTLaw Asia invites you to join our industry and legal experts as we examine the global tokenisation landscape, focusing on the transition from experimentation to commercial implementation, and the regulatory, market and legal developments shaping its future

Key Discussion Topics 1. Global Policy Developments: The Industry View An examination of regulatory and policy developments across the United States, Singapore, Hong Kong and the UAE, including stablecoin legislation, tokenised securities and the growing need for cross-border regulatory recognition and interoperable standards. 2. Market and Infrastructure Reality Check A closer look at the rise of tokenised securities and institutional products, including tokenised investment funds and private credit.

The discussion will examine infrastructure choices, public versus permissioned blockchains, settlement systems, interoperability risks and the liquidity challenges facing tokenised private assets. 3. Legal Implications for Investors Tokenisation does not change the underlying legal character of an asset. We will examine the distinction between tokens representing direct ownership rights and synthetic exposure, together with the legal considerations and potential risks for issuers and investors. 4.
