We are looking at opportunities to enter the tokenised assets market in India: Equiniti CEO

Equiniti, a global transfer agent serving major firms worldwide, is exploring opportunities in India's tokenised assets market. The company, headquartered in Chennai and Bengaluru, currently employs about 2,600 people and has grown significantly over the past few years. Equiniti already has a strong presence in India, with a significant portion of its workforce based there.

The company's global leadership team, finance services, HR teams, and other critical functions are based in India. Equiniti's recent acquisition by global digital assets enterprise Bullish has opened up new possibilities for the company in India, particularly in the tokenised assets market. Bullish, the largest crypto exchange and digital assets platform, is partnering with Equiniti to tokenise shareholder registers.

This trend towards tokenisation is being driven by increasing digitisation and a positive regulatory outlook in India. Despite automation efforts, Equiniti's India teams will continue to grow, albeit at a slower pace than in the past, as they take on more complex work. Equiniti is also investing in building products that cater to customers' demands for real-time data and automation.
