Argentina Launches Stock Tokenization Pilot Within Regulatory Sandbox
Argentina’s securities regulator, the CNV, has expanded its tokenization framework to include national and foreign stocks. Marking the first official use of the technology in Latin America.
Under General Resolution 1081, stocks, financial trusts, and closed-end fund shares can now be issued and traded as tokens on decentralized platforms. With legal recognition and AML safeguards handled by licensed service providers.
The initiative, implemented within a regulatory sandbox running until at least August 21. Represents a secondary digital representation of existing assets rather than new issuances. CNV President Roberto Silva called the move a pioneering step that positions Argentina at the forefront of financial innovation in the region.
