While financial services have largely been trapped in the Jurassic period, technology brings the future onto the horizon driven by thousands of futurists and tech evangelists. They already live in a free, decentralised individual-based cyber world and each day open small doors to bring us in. In the next few years, financial services will rapidly transform as tech rewrite the rules. What should we look for in the next period? Better terms? Improved customer experience? I think what we really need to keep our eye on is the digitalised securities arena. It becomes an available investable asset class for the very first time and brings with it the promise of enormous potential. Let’s have a look at the trends!

The growing number of ICOs, in excess of 2000 per month, highlights the unsatiated demand for financial technology innovations and projects that offer new solutions for existing problems. This keen interest in the ICO model also demonstrates that project founders and investors are looking for simple, fast solutions that will allow them to increase their efficiency and profitability. The current Capital Markets structure does not provide a solution that would offer easily accessible liquidity to private companies.

Exclusive interview of LUDWIK SOBOLEWSKI, Board Member at #HighCastle Group, ExCEO at Warsaw Stock Exchange and Bucharest Stock Exchange explains the future of financial markets – for The FinTech Times by Kate Shcheglova
“I tend to see the future of tokenization of assets as a concept to build up “tiers” of financial instruments. There are clear differences between a representation of assets by means of tokens and classical derivative financial instruments, but in essence, these two constructs resemble one another. Having said that, there is a viable perspective for the new concept and its implementations by different companies, like #HighCastle, which combine DLT with securities-backed notes in one #HighCastle’s SmartNote solution. It is also a signal for the regulators, that more “air” is needed for the system. Capital markets, as we know them today, are definitely over-regulated”. – said LUDWIK SOBOLEWSKI
