Financial Institutions Drive Tokenization Push as Real-World Assets Projected to Reach $19 Trillion by 2033

Eighty-three percent of major financial institutions now provide digital asset services, with tokenization emerging as the most widespread offering across firms including Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank, and the London Stock Exchange. Tokenized real-world assets are projected to grow from $0.6 trillion in 2025 to nearly $19 trillion by 2033, data show. The technology places bonds, funds, real estate, and credit products on programmable infrastructure, reducing settlement times and eliminating intermediary layers.
