Zurich, Switzerland — January 16th, 2024 — Obligate has been selected as a member of the Tokenized Asset Coalition (TAC), marking a major step forward in its mission to progress the institutional adoption of tokenized assets. Obligate joins 15 other new members as part of the coalition founded in 2023 by Aave Companies, Centrifuge, Circle, Coinbase, Base, Credix, Goldfinch, and RWA.xyz.

In joining the coalition, Obligate is set to contribute its extensive experience in arbitration, regulation, and tokenization, to participate in research leading to Tokenization Laws, DLT-based Dispute Resolution & Arbitration Schemes, and RWA Regulation. Joining the Tokenized Asset Coalition underscores Obligate’s dedication to fostering continuous innovation and developing solutions that enhance efficiency, transparency, and regulatory compliance in the tokenized asset industry.

“Joining the Tokenized Asset Coalition is a natural progression for Obligate, as we continue to innovate and drive the institutional adoption of tokenized assets,” said Matthias Wyss, Chief Strategy Officer at Obligate. “Our unique approach and successful track record in the on-chain capital markets position us ideally to contribute meaningfully to the TAC’s mission.”

“Our goal was always to bring together a diverse group of key players to ensure vast representation throughout the TAC,” said Colin Cunningham, TAC Chair. “We want to bring together not only diverse representation, but the players we all can trust when it comes to compliance, security, growth and adoption.”

Each member of the TAC will actively engage in events, contribute unique content, and shape the annual TAC report. The continuous expansion of TAC’s membership base ensures an unparalleled depth of insights and knowledge on the digital assets industry — within which Obligate continues to define new standards.
