Chainlink, a blockchain Oracle provider, and UBS, a $ 5.9 trillion asset manager, cooperated with the digift for a pilot study to automatically real-world tokenization funds. This feature can eliminate manu -errors, according to companies.
If successful, study may have implications for RWA tokenization in Hong Kong, a special Chinese administrative region.
According to In the announcement, the three groups “form a regulated blockchain-based infrastructure designed to automate and streamline distribution, settlement, and lifecycle management of tokenized products (…).”
The study is part of the Hong Kong’s Cyberport Blockchain & Digital Asset Pilot Subsidy Scheme, a sandbox that tests new crypto ideas for future implementation in Hong Kong.
According to the project’s workflow, investors first submitted subscription requests or redemption for UBS tokenized products through smart digift contracts. Those instructions were then processed by chainlink digital transfer transfer agent contracts, which act as infrastructure layer to verify orders and record them directly to onchain.
When processed, the orders trigger the corresponding release, redemption and other lifecycle events with UBS product contracts, which claims to follow the Capital Markets Technology Association (CMTA) tokens standards, a framework developed in Switzerland to reconcile digital security.

Some other crypto ideas considered in Cyberport are decentralized identity, payments and stablecoins, and blockchain for modern social and digital experience.
Unlike Mainland China, Hong Kong has Clear Regulatory Outline for Digital Ownership. However, it is still subject to China’s policies, such as reported upcoming crypto restrictions to Chinese companies that operate in the administrative zone.
Digift, an exchange that specializes in tokenized assets, provides comment on whether technological implementation meets the compliance and interoperability requirements of zone financial institutions.
Manu -reconciliation and adjustment of funds may result in monitoring errors or situations in which the value of a fund is not worth the amount of underlying possession.
The trends in automation of RWA tokenization funds include decentralized financial integration and produce generation. Because automation can increase efficiency, its implementation may lower costs, bringing more revenue for the fund operator or passed to investors.
