MIAMI and SEOUL, South Korea, Oct. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Securitize, the leading platform for tokenized assets, and LG CNS, a leading AX (AI Transformation) company in South Korea, today announced a strategic partnership to advance the development of tokenized assets and digital asset infrastructure in the Korean financial market.
Under a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), the companies intend to combine Securitize’s experience building regulated tokenization infrastructure and bringing institutional financial products onchain with LG CNS’s technology capabilities and relationships across Korea’s financial sector.
The collaboration will focus on three primary areas:
- Market Development: Securitize and LG CNS will identify opportunities with financial institutions across Korea and the broader Asia-Pacific region for tokenized assets, tokenized securities and stablecoins, including joint market education and development of institutional use cases.
- Technology and Product Collaboration: The companies intend to explore tokenization solutions tailored to Korean financial institutions and the country’s evolving regulatory framework
- Digital Asset Infrastructure: The companies will explore broader collaboration involving stablecoin infrastructure, digital asset treasury solutions and, subject to applicable laws and regulatory approvals, infrastructure that could ultimately connect Korean markets with global markets and support the distribution, execution and settlement of tokenized securities and stablecoins in a 24/7 manner
“South Korea has one of the world’s most sophisticated technology and financial markets, making it an important market for the next phase of institutional tokenization,” said Carlos Domingo, Co-Founder and CEO of Securitize. “Working with LG CNS gives us an opportunity to combine our experience bringing regulated financial assets onchain with deep local technology and market expertise. Our goal is to help build the infrastructure that can bring more high-quality financial products onchain in Korea while creating stronger connections between Korean institutions and global capital markets.”
Hongkeun Kim, Executive Vice President and head of Digital Business Division of LG CNS said, “Korea is entering a pivotal phase in asset tokenization. By combining LG CNS’s financial technology expertise with Securitize’s global tokenization infrastructure and experience, we aim to help Korean financial institutions build practical, regulatory-compliant applications and accelerate the growth of Korea’s digital asset ecosystem.”
The partnership is expected to include joint go-to-market initiatives, technical implementation, product development and broader ecosystem education. The companies will also explore opportunities involving established tokenized financial products and infrastructure, including institutional tokenized funds, where permitted under applicable law and regulation.
Any products or services contemplated under the collaboration remain subject to applicable laws and regulations, required regulatory approvals and the respective internal approval and compliance processes of Securitize and LG CNS.
