As reported by crypto.news on Apr. 24, the firm’s leadership team joined legal representatives from Davis Polk & Wardwell to discuss how traditional financial regulations might apply to tokenized securities. The meeting also covered important subjects like legal registration, broker-dealer regulations, and market supervision. The team suggested possible sandbox initiatives or regulatory exemptions to encourage innovation while protecting investors. The news appears to have had a positive impact on the market.
