In short: Tokenisation means representing a share in a property, or in the company that owns it, as a digital token on a blockchain. It promises lower minimum investments, faster transfers and round-the-clock trading. In practice, most tokens are securities, so issuers must follow financial regulation, and secondary markets can be thin. Investors still depend on the property, the manager and the legal structure behind the token. In the UK, the FCA and Bank of England are testing digital securities in regulatory sandboxes. Fraser Bond is a London property agency and doesn't provide crypto, tax or legal advice. This guide explains the landscape; take regulated professional advice.
