ECXX Ties up With UOB Kay Hian to Offer Securitised Token Offerings

by February 1, 2021

ECXX Global, a Singaporean asset-based digital securities exchange, announced that it has collaborated with regional brokerage UOB Kay Hian to bring in deep tech startups to their network and offer them the opportunity to list via Securitised Token Offerings (STOs) to raise growth capital.

Under this collaboration, both companies will facilitate tokenisation projects and tap on UOB Kay Hian’s pool of investors to market and distribute tokens to potential investors.

They will comply with regulations for token issuance and they will provide investor education and analysis on tokenisation and tokens investment.

ECXX had previously secured admission from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) to the Fintech Sandbox Express under a Recognised Market Operator (RMO) regime.

This led to ECXX being integrated into MyInfo which is the one-stop Singapore government identity platform.
