Swiss fintech companies, Taurus and Aktionariat, have teamed up to revolutionize the trading of tokenized shares for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) on the Taurus Digital Exchange (TDX).
Through Aktionariat’s innovative tokenization solution, businesses can now convert their shares into blockchain-based tokens on the Ethereum network. This technological advancement is set to enhance liquidity access for Swiss SMEs, offering investors the opportunity to hold equity digitally.
The partnership’s first initiative will be introduced to RealUnit Schweiz, an investment company specializing in real assets, with plans to launch in November. RealUnit Schweiz, which tokenized its shares via Aktionariat earlier this year, will be among the first Swiss companies to offer tokenized instruments on TDX.
Victor Busson, Chief Marketing Officer at Taurus, highlighted that tokenized shares provide investors with the same economic and social rights as traditional shares. Investors can choose between bearer shares or registered shares, opening up a world of opportunities for trading on TDX.
Taurus’ collaboration with Aktionariat follows their successful partnership with German fintech firm Teylor to tokenize SME loans, allowing tokenholders to receive monthly cashflows. This strategic move has enabled professional private debt investors to participate in blockchain-based secondary markets for returns.
Overall, the alliance between Taurus and Aktionariat is set to bring about a transformation in the way shares are traded, offering an exciting new avenue for investors and businesses alike.
