Tokenisation 2026 Recap
Open finance and its enemies: Must tokenisers choose progress over revolution?
On 14 October 2026, Future of Finance hosted Tokenisation 2026: Open Finance and Its Enemies: Must Tokenisers Choose Progress over Revolution? at the Aon Centre in London, bringing together senior figures from financial services, asset management, technology and regulation to examine why tokenisation has yet to scale and what is needed to unlock its potential. Discussions explored the search for a killer application, retail versus institutional adoption, the influence of the cryptocurrency industry, and the role of regulation and market infrastructure in driving wider adoption. Speakers also examined which use cases are delivering tangible value and how tokenisation can move beyond experimentation towards commercial scale.
