BREAKING 🚨
Morgan Stanley becomes one of the first banks to place U.S. stocks and Treasury bonds on a blockchain platform 🚀.
The initiative follows the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation’s launch of its Tokenization Service (DTS) on Oct. 28, which enables tokenized securities to be issued, transferred and settled on distributed ledger technology. By tokenizing equities and debt, Morgan Stanley aims to cut settlement times from days to minutes while boosting transparency and reducing operational costs. The bank expects the new workflow to attract institutional clients seeking faster, more secure post‑trade processes. Regulators have been monitoring the rollout, noting that compliance frameworks are being adapted to accommodate digital assets.
The rollout underscores a rapid shift toward blockchain‑based settlement in mainstream finance.
