A Broadridge survey of 200 financial institutions in North America found that tokenization has moved into the strategic core of Wall Street firms. According to the results, 84% of respondents said tokenization is now a strategic priority, while 68% said it will at least partly reshape financial markets over the next three to five years. Nearly one-third said they expect to raise related investment by 26% to more than 50% within the next two years. Adoption levels vary sharply by segment. Among capital markets firms, 44% said tokenization projects are already in production or operating at scale. The figure drops to 20% for asset managers and 9% for wealth management firms. The survey also found that 80% of respondents expect tokenized mutual funds and money market funds to play an important role within five years, while only about half expressed optimism about tokenized equities. Looking at infrastructure choices, 69% said they plan to integrate tokenization into existing systems instead of building separate stacks, and 92% expect digital and traditional assets to coexist over the long term. Regulatory uncertainty and operational complexity remain the main obstacles.
