DigiFT and BE Trust Partner to Bring Regulated Tokenized Assets to High-Net-Worth Investors Across Asia
SINGAPORE / HONG KONG, 19 June — DigiFT, a next-generation platform for tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), and BE Trust, a Hong Kong-regulated trust management platform serving high-net-worth individuals and family offices globally, today announced a strategic partnership to bring DigiFT’s regulated on-chain product suite of institutional-grade yield instruments to BE Trust’s client base. Under the partnership, DigiFT’s products would be made available to BE Trust’s clients as a trusted solution, combining BE Trust’s established client relationships with DigiFT’s dual-licensed platform and product suite —built in partnership with leading global asset managers. The integration spans DigiFT’s Ethereum-based product suite, with client access denominated in USDC, USDT, and BTC
A trusted distribution layer for a maturing market
The tokenized real-world asset sector has grown substantially in scale, recording over $24 billion in distributed asset value as of February 2026, reflecting 266% growth across 20251.
Despite that growth, distribution has remained the sector’s central constraint, with issuers increasingly differentiating on regulatory standing, asset coverage, and distribution reach1 — a sign that the market has moved past product development into the harder problem of access. This partnership is designed to close that gap.
Regulatory momentum and shifting investor behaviour
The partnership comes against a backdrop of accelerating regulatory validation for tokenized yield instruments. Singapore has supported tokenized funds within regulated frameworks through Project Guardian, while Hong Kong’s SFC introduced tailored licensing standards for professional investors in August 20253. DigiFT is licensed by both the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong (SFC), giving it a regulatory footprint across two of Asia’s most established financial centres. For BE Trust’s clients, that regulatory clarity is a prerequisite, not a footnote.
Investor behaviour is shifting in parallel. Approximately 18% of HNWIs globally now hold cryptocurrency allocations, with average exposure ranging from 3% to 12% of total investable assets4. As yields from speculative DeFi protocols have compressed toward those of traditional fixed income — reflecting a broader normalisation of on-chain markets rather than a retreat from them — compliance infrastructure, counterparty quality, and capital preservation now carry more weight than yield differentials alone. Regulated instruments, institutional-grade instruments are positioned to benefit directly from that shift.
“BE Trust has built a wealth platform that brings established, regulated client relationships into the Web3 era — exactly the kind of channel that allows regulated on-chain products to reach the investors they are designed for. This partnership is a reflection of where the market is moving: quality assets, delivered through platforms that clients already trust, and we look forward to deepening that together.”
— Henry Zhang, Founder and Group CEO, DigiFT
“Our clients are sophisticated allocators who understand the value of regulated, institutional-grade instruments. DigiFT’s product suite — developed in partnership with leading global asset managers — gives our clients exactly what they have been looking for: regulated, high-quality on-chain yield they can trust.”— Jing Wei, CEO, BE Trust
