JPMorgan: Tokenization Will Transform Funds Industry, but Quality Use Cases Still Years Away

Gate News message, April 25 — Ciarán Fitzpatrick, JPMorgan’s global head of ETF product and securities services, said tokenization should drive significant change across the entire funds industry, not just for ETFs. In a post released Friday, Fitzpatrick noted that experimentation with tokenizing ETFs is ongoing, citing potential benefits such as enhanced creation and redemption processes, near-instant settlement, and nonstop market access.

“My view on tokenization is that it will become part of the ETF ecosystem, but we’re a couple of years away from some good use cases,” Fitzpatrick said. JPMorgan is already exploring different tokenization use cases through Kinexys, the bank’s blockchain business unit.

Both traditional financial institutions and regulators have recently shown increased willingness to tokenize established investments, particularly assets that trade on exchanges with limited hours, such as equities and funds. The SEC has approved various tokenization initiatives, including enabling major exchanges to support tokenized share trading. Analysts expect tokenized assets to reach between $2 trillion and over $10 trillion by 2030.
