Interview with CSOP CIO Wang Yi: Tokenization hinges on compliance framework, AI remains the main thrust of global capital

Investment focus should follow the flow of 'AI CAPEX', especially the downstream segments that absorb capex (e.g., memory makers like Micron and SK Hynix).

• The choice of a money market ETF was driven by regulatory certainty, asset stability, and a market demand mismatch as DeFi yields decline, with plans to expand to other asset classes like commodities and gold.
• The CIO highlights AI CAPEX as the primary global investment theme, advising focus on downstream segments like memory makers, while acknowledging the ongoing infrastructure build-out for tokenized RWAs.

ICMA Repo and DLT report key takeaways

Key takeaway from ICMA's Repo and DLT report...

• DLT has the potential to revolutionize repo markets through faster settlement and automation, but adoption remains limited, with intra-day repo emerging as the strongest near-term use case.
• Cross-chain interoperability is a central challenge, indicating a move towards interconnected networks rather than a single dominant ledger.
• Tokenized deposits are favored over stablecoins for institutional repo, and U.S. Treasuries are the dominant collateral in DLT repo tests.
