The Real Impact of Tokenised Assets - May 07, 2026 - Brussels

Tokenised bonds and other digital assets are moving beyond experimentation, raising practical questions for issuers, investors, banks, market infrastructures and government regulators.

The discussion is no longer whether tokenisation will play a role in capital markets, but how it affects the full value chain — from issuance and distribution to settlement, custody, operating models and regulatory oversight.

Join us in Brussels for another Think Tank Session, organised by The Banking Scene in partnership with Avantage Reply. This intimate dinner discussion brings together a carefully selected group of senior leaders from across banking, asset management, market infrastructure and regulatory bodies to exchange perspectives on how tokenised assets are moving from experimentation to operational reality.

Rather than a traditional event with presentations, this roundtable is designed as a closed-door conversation among peers under the Chatham House Rule, allowing participants to share insights, challenges and emerging practices in a candid setting.

Key Topics of Discussion

• How are tokenised bonds reshaping the capital markets value chain from issuance to settlement?
• What are the implications for front-office and back-office operating models?
• Which policy, compliance and processing challenges still stand in the way of large-scale adoption?
• What lessons can be drawn from recent pilots and early market initiatives?
• How should issuers, investors, custodians and market infrastructures position themselves as the market evolves?
