Seqlense Investment Brief 36 - EN
Investment Brief #36 documents the moment when experimentation becomes infrastructure. On 21 September, the Eurosystem launched Pontes, enabling wholesale transactions in tokenised assets to be settled in central bank money, while the ECB prepares to invest part of its own funds in euro-denominated tokenised securities. Across the Atlantic, the SEC granted a temporary, conditional exemption for the secondary trading of certain tokenised US shares. The United Kingdom enters a pre-operational phase (FCA gateway opening 30 September, Bank of England consultation on systemic stablecoins) and the digital euro pilot seeks merchants. Strategic takeaway: financial and technological innovation is being institutionalised, and central bank money is arriving on the rails of tokenisation.
