Finstreet, together with its regulated entities forming an Abu Dhabi-based financial market infrastructure group, has signed a MoU with OKX Ventures, the investment arm of the global digital asset exchange and blockchain company, OKX.
The agreement will explore the availability of regulated tokenised assets in international markets, combining Finstreet’s infrastructure and the ADI Foundation’s blockchain capabilities with OKX Ventures’ network and partnership channels.
The partnership represents an effort to integrate traditional finance (tradfi) with decentralised finance (defi).
Under the proposed collaboration, Finstreet plans to use its ADGM-regulated infrastructure to originate and structure on-chain investment products, including traditional financial instruments.
OKX Ventures will seek to provide global access to these products through its network and Web3 channels, subject to applicable regulations and jurisdictional requirements.
Plans are underway to develop frameworks allowing Finstreet’s subsidiaries and their products to leverage OKX Ventures’ channels, which serve users in over 100 countries.
Jeff Ren, Head of OKX Ventures, said:
“We see potential in working alongside Finstreet and ADI to support the adoption of tokenised products. Their infrastructure and regulatory foundation align with our vision of connecting traditional finance with blockchain. By expanding access to Finstreet’s ecosystem within regulatory frameworks, we aim to support deeper liquidity and cross-border capital flows.”
Sunidhi Pasan, Founder and CEO of Finstreet, said:
“Tokenisation is unlocking new avenues for global capital access. By combining tokenisation infrastructure with OKX’s international reach, we are broadening investor access while maintaining governance and compliance standards, bringing us closer to a more connected and efficient market for private and alternative assets.”
