Move highlights growing adoption of real-world asset tokenization in Asia
Hong Kong’s Fosun Wealth Holdings has launched tokenized shares of Sisram Medical, an Israeli medical technology company listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, in a push to advance digital asset integration. The tokenized equity represents approximately $328 million in market value, according to the company’s announcement on Tuesday.
The initiative leverages Vaulta’s “Banking OS” platform while incorporating Solana, Ethereum, and Sonic for issuance and settlement. Sisram Medical, which trades under ticker 1696.HK, is the first equity to be tokenized under the program, with Fosun signaling that additional corporate bonds and shares will follow.
Expanding access through tokenization
A Fosun spokesperson described the launch as part of the firm’s long-term digital finance vision. “The tokenization of Fosun’s listed companies reflects our commitment to financial innovation and digital transformation,” the representative said. “Through Vaulta and Solana, we can expand access to our portfolio, offering investors new levels of transparency, efficiency, and inclusivity.”
By creating tokenized versions of listed shares, the company aims to make traditional equities more accessible and interoperable within blockchain ecosystems. Industry analysts note that tokenized securities can enhance liquidity, reduce settlement times, and open investment opportunities to a broader base of global participants.
Tokenization trend gathers momentum
The move comes amid growing interest in real-world asset (RWA) tokenization across financial markets. The total value of tokenized RWAs reached $27.9 billion as of Tuesday, marking a 7.4% increase month-over-month, according to RWA.xyz.
Experts suggest that Hong Kong’s regulatory framework has positioned the city as a testing ground for tokenized assets. “Hong Kong is keen to establish itself as a regional hub for blockchain-enabled capital markets, and initiatives like Fosun’s are aligned with that ambition,” said BITX industry analyst.
While Sisram Medical is the first step, Fosun’s broader tokenization roadmap could set the stage for a wave of digital corporate securities across Asia. The company has yet to disclose which firms or bonds will be included next, but its adoption of blockchain infrastructure signals a deeper commitment to blending traditional finance with decentralized technologies.
As global financial institutions increasingly explore tokenized models, Fosun’s initiative underscores how corporate equity and debt instruments may soon evolve into blockchain-native assets, transforming how investors interact with capital markets.
