Launched in 2017, Tokeny Solutions is a Luxembourg-based tokenization platform. The company provides end-to-end solutions to issue, manage and transfer tokenized securities on the public blockchain.  Tokeny Solutions’ unique T-REX protocol integrates compliance obligations into the digital asset smart contract, to create tokens compliant by design.

Tokenization is the method of converting rights of an asset like equities, debt-like instruments, and funds, into digital tokens. These tokens then further can be subdivided, traded and stored on a blockchain system.

Euronext’s investment in Tokeny Solutions underlines the company's major long term bet on tokenization of assets.
