A new report by Ripple and Boston Consulting Group (BCG) predicts the tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) market will soar from $0.6 trillion today to $18.9 trillion by 2033, with $9.4 trillion expected by 2030. This growth reflects a 53% compound annual growth rate (CAGR), signaling a major shift in global finance.
Ripple forecasts tokenized assets to hit $19 trillion by 2033.
Tokenization involves converting traditional assets, such as real estate and bonds, into digital tokens. This shift enables 24/7 trading, enhanced liquidity, and transparency.
Key players like BlackRock, Fidelity, and JPMorgan are already exploring tokenized finance, while Ripple’s Markus Infanger emphasizes the move towards integrating tokenized assets into economic activity.
Regulatory clarity in markets like the EU, UAE, and Switzerland, alongside advancements in technology infrastructure, are key growth drivers. Despite challenges like fragmented infrastructure and differing regulations, tokenization is expected to form the foundation for future global finance.
As BCG’s Bernhard Kronfellner puts it, “Tokenization is no longer just a concept — it’s the future of global finance.”
