Brazil Pushes Mandatory Tokenization to Overhaul Market Tracking
Brazil's securities regulator, the CVM, is pushing mandatory tokenization of fund structures combined with AI supervision to modernize market surveillance. CVM president Otto Lobo said traditional tracking methods are obsolete given the size of the fund industry, which has a net worth of $2.32 trillion. A mandatory tokenization regime for a major market would be a significant regulatory endorsement of blockchain infrastructure, though no specific crypto assets are involved.
