BNM Explores Tokenisation, Welcomes Feedback

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 30 (Bernama) -- Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) supports a collaborative approach to exploring tokenisation to co-create a safe and sustainable roadmap for the development of tokenised financial services in Malaysia.

In a statement today, the central bank said the discussion paper on asset tokenisation in the Malaysian financial sector aims to gather feedback that will inform BNM's regulatory and development approach for asset tokenisation in the financial sector.

BNM also said it welcomes written feedback on the key themes outlined in the discussion paper, including suggestions for specific issues, areas to be clarified or elaborated further, and alternative proposals BNM should consider. 

"To facilitate an effective review, feedback should be supported by a clear rationale, relevant evidence and/or illustrative examples.

"All feedback must be submitted via email to tokenisation@bnm.gov.my, latest by March 1, 2026," it said.
