The collaboration combines DigiShares’ white-label platform, ZIGChain’s RWA-focused L1, and Valereum’s market access to deliver compliant issuance and trading for real-world assets.
DigiShares today announced it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Valereum Plc (AQSE: VLRM) and ZIGChain to develop a scalable, institutional-grade platform for real-world asset tokenization and Web3-driven wealth management.
Under the MoU, DigiShares will provide the white-label tokenization stack and integrate ZIGChain as the lead blockchain for current and new clients.
The platform will support primary issuance, investor onboarding and compliance checks, smart contract-based ownership, and peer-to-peer trading for assets such as real estate and funds. The parties will jointly explore additional onboarding opportunities, including potential third-party clients such as Zamanat, for custom-branded work. They will examine the possibility of DigiShares technology supporting tokenisation efforts by Zamanant, with plans to onboard other third-party clients seeking custom-branded RWA marketplaces powered by ZIGChain infrastructure. While the initial focus is on the MENA region, leveraging the presence of VLRM Markets and Zamanat, all parties are looking towards global expansion
“Institutions want clear, compliant rails to issue and trade real-world assets. By pairing our white-label platform with ZIGChain’s L1 and Valereum’s market access, we can offer an end-to-end workflow from onboarding to secondary trading that helps issuers reach more investors without adding operational friction.” – said Claus Skaaning, CEO at DigiShares.
“This partnership is part of our work to build institutional-grade infrastructure to power the future of digital assets. By combining Valereum’s regulatory-first approach, ZIGChain’s blockchain capabilities, DigiShares’ proven tokenisation platform, and VLRM Markets’ RWA licensed permissions, we’re enabling compliant, scalable, and accessible RWA solutions for institutions and innovators alike. Having worked with the ZIGChain team for years, I see this as a milestone for the future of regulated Web3 wealth management.” – said Mark Mariampillai, Business Development Lead, Valereum Plc.
”We’re proud to join forces with Valereum Plc and DigiShares to unlock the next chapter in blockchain enabled finance. Our goal is to empower institutions and asset owners across the MENA region and beyond with the tools to tokenise, manage, and trade real world assets in a secure and regulatory compliant way. This collaboration brings us closer to our vision of making blockchain the trusted backbone of the global asset market and allowing anyone to access wealth management.” – said Abdul Rafay, CEO and Co-Founder, ZIGChain.
