Ripple made a pretty savvy move, going straight into South Korea’s capital markets. It’s partnering with Meritz Securities to bring custody and tokenization tools to the Korean institutional market—its first partnership with a Korean brokerage.
Institutional investors in South Korea have long shown strong interest in tokenized securities. Ripple is entering the market with a one-two punch of custody and tokenization, finding a promising route through the regulatory landscape. But let’s be honest: South Korea’s domestic crypto ecosystem is quite closed, so it won’t be easy for foreign firms to break in. The Meritz deal looks more like a pilot, so let’s not get ahead of ourselves.
