Investment in tokenized assets is on the rise, and the recent purchase by institutional investor APS of real estate through the MetaWealth platform marks an important step in this field.
APS's First Step into Real Estate Tokenization
APS, which manages assets worth over 12 billion euros, acquired tokenized bonds worth 3 million euros tied to two residential properties in Italy - Fo.Ro Living Rome and Porta Pamphili Rome. Each tranche was split evenly at 1.5 million euros. APS acquired the same tokenized assets available to retail investors.

Acceleration of Asset Tokenization
Recently, there has been a surge of interest in real asset tokenization, with key players from both traditional finance and the crypto community taking notice. Companies such as BlackRock and MultiBank Group have announced plans to tokenize significant assets.
Asset tokenization opens new investment horizons, enhancing liquidity and transactional opportunities, which should attract the attention of both institutions and retail investors.
