Growth and structure of tokenized stocks

Overview

The emergence of tokenized stocks allows investors to access traditional securities through blockchain technology. In Indonesia, platforms like Pintu enable investors to purchase fractional ownership of global technology and e-commerce companies, such as Amazon and Alibaba, using local currency without requiring direct US Dollar conversion.

These digital assets are categorized as Real World Assets (RWA). They can be structured as issuer-sponsored, custodial, or synthetic tokens. While these instruments facilitate fractional ownership and potential 24/7 trading, they may not provide the same legal rights as traditional shares, particularly regarding voting power, dividends, and claims during bankruptcy. The distinction between tokens representing direct equity and those acting as price-tracking derivatives remains a critical factor for investors.
