UTC report: Tokenised CIS could transform Caribbean finance

Teaser
Blockchain tokenisation is being explored as a way to break down barriers to investing, increase operational efficiency, and attract new capital to the Caribbean, according to a new report from the Unit Trust Corporation’s investment team.

The report, “Tokenisation of Collective Investment Schemes: Opportunities and Challenges in the Caribbean Context,” examines the feasibility of tokenising Collective Investment Schemes (CIS), exploring regulatory, legal, and financial implications of a proposed tokenised fund.

Authored by Andrew Maharaj, Cedric Thompson, Lenice Lewis, Philip Williams, Savio Keith, Sharlene Dabideen, and Terry-Ann Bronte Tinkew, the report positions tokenisation as a potentially transformative tool for the Caribbean’s financial system.
