  "account": "Doha, Qatar: The proposed real estate tokenisation legislation aims to broaden investment access and enhance market flexibility, according to Abdulrahman Al Najjar, CEO of Kate Real Estate. The Council of Ministers recently approved a draft law to regulate tokenisation and trading of real estate tokens, a significant step toward modernising Qatar's real estate investment landscape. Real estate tokenisation involves converting property ownership into programmable digital tokens on a distributed ledger system, enabling easier fractional investment in high-value properties.

Al Najjar emphasized the importance of linking digital ownership interests to the official real estate registration system to ensure investor protection and confidence in tokenised assets.",
