Apex Group has announced the acquisition of a majority stake in Tokeny, an enterprise-grade tokenisation solutions provider.
The transaction, which will see Apex Group have 100% control over the next three years, follows the initial investment and strategic partnership with Tokeny announced in December 2023. This process marks a significant deepening of the relationship as Apex Group commits to lead the institutional adoption of tokenised finance.
Peter Hughes (pictured), Founder and CEO of Apex Group, said: “As a majority owner, Apex Group is enhancing its ability to deliver comprehensive, future-proof solutions to our clients. Tokenisation is a foundational shift in how assets will be managed, distributed, and accessed. Our strengthened partnership with Tokeny is key to delivering on our vision to be the infrastructure provider in the digital era of finance.”
Since the initial partnership announcement, Tokeny has seen growing adoption of its technology and standards by leading financial institutions. Its chain- agnostic infrastructure has been integrated into Apex Group’s offerings and deployed to tokenise assets for clients.
Luc Falempin, CEO of Tokeny, said: “Expanding our partnership to now being part of Apex Group enables us to move faster and serve more institutions with a truly global footprint. In the last six years, we’ve built a robust tokenisation infrastructure and an active ecosystem of partners. But to bring tokenisation to scale, institutional distribution and credibility are key — and that’s exactly what Apex Group brings to the table. We’re proud to align with their vision to deliver tangible innovation to the financial industry.”
