MANTRA, a well-known entity in the MENA region, has taken a significant step forward in the tokenization of RWAs. The platform has recently signed a memorandum of understanding with Zand Bank, a licensed entity under the Central Bank of the United Arab Emirates. This strategic move aims to simplify the process of tokenizing real-world assets.
MANTRA and Zand Bank Team Up to Facilitate RWA Tokenization
This collaboration is expected to establish a strong regulatory framework in line with the Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority of Dubai. MANTRA’s L1 blockchain, with a focus on RWAs, is set to streamline the tokenization process by addressing asset distribution, listing, and identification.
Furthermore, the partnership will focus on creating guidelines to support the distribution of RWAs, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards and investor protection. The goal is to build trust, confidence, and widespread adoption of real-world assets tokenization in the UAE. John Patrick Mullin, CEO of MANTRA, expressed optimism about the partnership’s potential impact on the exchange and custody of RWAs.
