Tokenise was recently invited by the Department of International Trade (DIT) by the UK Government to join them on a Fintech trade mission to Mexico. Our time was spent listening and talking to various parties from banks, to investors and everything in between. We attended a meeting at the UK Ambassador’s residence and gave them a brief synopsis of our business and how we are looking to develop our business both at home and overseas.
Of particular interest was a meeting with the regulator in Mexico, after hearing about their new Fintech Law we were given the opportunity to speak to them more specifically about our business and where we are heading and what we have done so far. In an effort to be at the cutting edge of new regulatory products the regulator has invited Tokenise to be the first foreign business to join their regulatory sandbox, whereby we can test the entire platform in a safe environment with assistance from the regulator before being able to address the 120m population of Mexico. This is a huge boost for Tokenise and our ambitions to have a global order book accessed through multiple jurisdictions and paves the way to join up all the regulated bodies around the world.
We would like to thank our friends at the DIT and all that we met in Mexico City for making us feel very welcome and hope soon to be working with a number of them.
