OSL Group (863.HK), a leading global compliant digital financial infrastructure platform, today announced its partnership with the Solana Foundation at the Solana APEX Summit. This collaboration aims to leverage the strengths of both organizations to jointly advance the global, compliant development of real-world asset (RWA) tokenization and meet the growing market demand from institutional investors.
As regulatory frameworks for digital assets gradually clarify in multiple jurisdictions around the world, institutional investors are actively seeking digital asset gateways that are both compliant with regulatory requirements and technically feasible. The collaboration between OSL Group and the Solana Foundation reflects their shared vision of promoting the development of a compliant digital asset ecosystem. On August 1st of this year, OSL HK, a subsidiary of OSL Group, became the first licensed digital asset exchange in Hong Kong to list the SOL token, opening SOL/USD and SOL/HKD trading pairs to retail investors.
In recent years, OSL Group has established industry-leading compliance and technical service capabilities in the RWA space. Its platform, OSL Tokenworks, is dedicated to providing one-stop asset tokenization services to financial institutions such as asset management companies, securities firms, and funds. Solana, with its high throughput, extremely low transaction costs, and robust on-chain composability, is increasingly attracting traditional financial institutions as the preferred public blockchain for RWA on-chain. Going forward, OSL Group and the Solana Foundation will continue to promote the on-chain and regulatory compliance of more traditional financial assets, enabling traditional institutions to securely, compliantly, and smoothly integrate into the Web3 ecosystem.
The primary focus of this collaboration is to accelerate the scaled adoption of RWAs. OSL Tokenworks will integrate its technology with the Solana blockchain to provide a compliant and secure tokenized issuance channel for traditional financial assets such as funds, bonds, and private credit. Several financial institutions have already expressed interest in deploying tokenized financial products on the Solana network through OSL Group, demonstrating strong market recognition of this collaborative model.
OSL Group Chief Commercial Officer Yinghua Zhang said: "Financial institutions have shown strong interest in participating in on-chain exploration of digital assets, and compliance and security are the solid foundation of all this exploration. Our collaboration with the Solana Foundation will bring customers more powerful and efficient real-world asset (RWA) solutions. By combining our compliant financial infrastructure with Solana's high-performance network, we are paving the way for the deep integration of traditional finance and decentralized finance, unleashing the unlimited potential of the trillion-scale market."
Lu Yin, Head of Asia Pacific at the Solana Foundation, said: "Solana is committed to providing the most efficient platform for builders of the next generation of financial applications. With efficient settlement, low costs, and strong composability, Solana is increasingly favored by institutions interested in deploying RWAs. We are pleased to work with OSL Group, a leader in compliant digital assets, to jointly build a new RWA ecosystem for the market that is secure, compliant, risk-controlled, and has global liquidity."
