South Korea's Financial Services Commission (FSC) has announced a three-phase roadmap to tokenize stocks, bonds, and funds starting February 2027. The final phase will integrate stablecoin on-chain payments. Retail subscription limits are set at 30 million won or 5% of issuance. Licensed financial institutions can handle tokenized securities with existing permits. Samsung SDS has won the contract to develop the platform, expected to be completed alongside legal amendments. The roadmap follows a bill passed by the National Assembly in January, establishing a legal framework for issuing traditional securities on distributed ledgers.
