Sygnum, 향후 IPO를 대비해 주식을 토큰화

Sygnum, a Swiss digital bank, has just 발표 that it has successfully tokenized shares in the company.

“…Sygnum 주식의 디지털 표현과 관련된 법적 권리 및 의무가 생성되었으며, 분산 원장에 불변하게 기록되었습니다.

This move was facilitated by the company’s own tokenization platform, ‘Desygnate’, which makes use of the Ethereum blockchain.  With Desygnate being marketed towards institutional clientele, this tokenization effort is a perfect demonstration of what it can offer like-minded companies.

프로세스의 장점

For those wondering why a company would tokenize its shares, Sygnum notes automation as a key reason why.  Automation provides the following capabilities, each of which benefits both investors and Sygnum alike.

• 주식 등록부의 변경 사항이 자동으로 업데이트되어 자본 증가 또는 주식 이전을 반영합니다.
• 보고 요구사항을 없앱니다.
• 결제 시간이 단축됩니다.

In addition to the aforementioned perks, Sygnum notes that this tokenization now sets the stage for an eventual IPO by the company.

“This successful tokenization also lays the foundation for Sygnum to eventually go public. For its future public offering, Sygnum is currently exploring several strategies in its home markets of Switzerland and Singapore, including a potential dual listing with ecosystem partner SIX Digital Exchange (SDX) in Zurich, and also with the Singapore-based digital exchange partnership between SDX and SBI Digital Asset Holdings.”

논평

Upon announcing this step forward, representatives from each, Sygnum and Six Digital Exchange, took the time to comment.

Sygnum CEO, Mathias Imbach, stated,

“우리는 세계 최초로 우리 주식을 토큰화하는 은행이 된 것을 기쁘게 생각합니다. 이는 소유권과 가치에 대한 보다 직접적이고 효율적인 접근을 창출한다는 우리의 사명을 실현하는 중요한 이정표입니다. 여기에는 고객 및 파트너와의 새로운 참여 모델이 포함되며, 궁극적으로 신뢰받는 주주들에게 유동성을 제공하게 됩니다.”

Head of SDX, Tim Grant, stated,

“우리는 분산 원장 기술의 이점을 활용하는 기관 수준의 미래 지향적 금융 시장 인프라를 구축함에 있어, 신뢰할 수 있는 플레이어와 선구자가 주류 채택을 이끌어야 합니다. 우리는 이 여정에서 Sygnum과 파트너가 된 것을 기쁘게 생각하며, 향후 스위스와 싱가포르 전역에서 성공적인 이중 상장을 촉진하기를 기대합니다.
