19: How Blockchain and Tokenization Is Revolutionising the Financial Industry | Poundcast Episode 19

In episode 19 of the Poundcast, we dive into the future of finance with Daniel Coheur, co-founder of Tokeny. Daniel shares his journey from traditional finance into the world of digital assets and tokenization, explaining how blockchain and tokenized assets are set to transform market infrastructure. Together with host Helen Disney, Daniel discusses the potential of tokenization for creating new efficiencies, unlocking liquidity, and enhancing transparency in financial markets. 

They also explore the role of digital currencies, including central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and stablecoins, in accelerating the adoption of tokenized assets. As financial institutions increasingly pilot blockchain-based solutions, Daniel shares insights on where the market is heading, why widespread adoption may be closer than we think, and how tokenized finance will eventually become mainstream—much like the Internet is today. 

Will the UK’s digital pound or the EU’s digital euro take the lead? And what impact could this have on the global financial landscape? We explore how tokenization could redefine our concept of money, improve access to investments, and change the way financial markets operate.
