Swiss securities firm Taurus SA and equity token expert Aktionariat AG announced a partnership. Taurus will provide services for some of the Ethereum-based tokenized shares issued by Aktionariat, while Aktionariat will provide its client companies with a way to list on the Taurus Digital eXchange (TDX). The partnership is scheduled to launch in November. The partnership aims to increase the liquidity and value of tokenized SMEs and their shareholders through TDX's network of banks, professional investors and retail customers. Crypto investment company RealUnit will be one of the first companies to use the platform, and investors can choose between traditional bearer shares or tokenized shares, which is a first in Switzerland. Taurus said the partnership is in line with its vision of a digital private market that aims to make private equity investing as easy as buying a book online, whether it is equity, debt or other assets such as funds and real estate.
