KIP: Korea's STO market needs foreign capital and global products to compete

  • —KIP: domestic capital and products alone leave Korean STOs uncompetitive
  • —Singapore and Hong Kong already use stablecoins for tokenized funds and onchain management
  • —KIP plans to launch an STO product with a Korean financial company in 2027
  • —Liquidity and a secondary market were named the core of tokenized securities
Why it matters: Korea is preparing to roll out STOs next year; without global capital access and secondary liquidity, the market risks staying local.
