Digital Securities
KABN plans for Security Token Offering, Hosted by Tokenise

Upcoming STO
A promising pair of companies have just released news of an upcoming security token offering. This announcement will see KABN (Gibraltar) Limited issue digital securities through a token sale hosted by the U.K’s Tokenise.
Through this STO, KABN intends to raise the funds necessary to ensure the continued development of their financial services platform. This platform will be focused around not only a digital wallet, but a VISA endorsed card, linked to cryptocurrency holdings, a loyalty program, and blockchain based identification services.
While these tokens will initially only be available to qualified investors in the UK, it is only a matter of time before they find their way onto secondary exchanges; thereby opening a global opportunity to invest in the upstart, KABN.
Future Use
Tokenise has recognized the potential of KABN. They have indicated that upon successful completion of their STO, they will utilize the services offered by KABN in their future offerings for other companies. KABN has the ability to do so, through previously established partnerships with both Pannovate and Transact Payments.
The intent for future use of services obviously makes Tokenise’s inaugural STO an important one, as the event directly affects a potential business partner of theirs.
