How to tokenize your company assets via Equity Token Offering?

  • by Rahul on Wed Jul 21

As the paradigm of finance shifts, there are more digitized ways by which you can raise funds for launching or expanding your business. Equity Token Offering (ETO) is a new method by which one can raise funds via tokenizing the company’s assets.

Such a tokenized equity can represent either a share in the company or participation in an investment fund. Government agencies, corporates, startups can use this method to raise funds without going through the hassles of traditional fundraising methods.

According to a report of World Economic Forum (WEF), the tokenization of both intangible and physical properties will propel a significant portion of our future economy, and the market value-add of blockchain will increase to marginally more than $176 billion by 2025 and reach $3.1 trillion by 2030.

In this article, we’ll learn more about ETO and how you can launch it. To help you understand the process let’s look through:

  1. What is an asset tokenization
  2. The benefits of asset tokenization 
  3. How to tokenize your assets 
  4. How to present an equity token offering?

What is asset tokenization?

Asset tokenization is the method of converting assets such as bonds, ownership, or investment capital into a digital token. This token is created and maintained on a blockchain. These tokens are regarded as a digital image of a particular tradable commodity.

Tokenizing of assets would increase the investor’s trust in the Security Token Offering (STO) organized for the company’s fundraising. Tokens are often monitored, supplying prospective buyers with investment security and making it much easier to raise funds. Similarly, the shares, assets, and equities of the company can be converted into tokens maintained in smart contracts and blockchains to raise funds.

The benefits of asset tokenization

The advantages over traditional finances can’t be glossed over. Tokenization comes with the benefits of:

  • Greater Liquidity: For the seller, the liquidity of the token adds value to the asset. For the investor, it provides more opportunities for liquidity.
  • Transparency: The rights, ownership details, and the details of the transaction can be embedded in the token hence providing clear and transparent information about the token.
  • Affordability: Without intermediaries, the transactions don’t require the accompanying costs making the process more affordable. 
  • Accessibility: The tokens are accessible to a larger audience and since the transaction is fulfilled using a smart contract the process is automated and requires fewer intermediaries. 

Backing the value of a token with a real-world asset can expand the potential investor base of that particular token to a wider market. It brings the possibility of trading on a secondary market. There are a few constraints that exist due to the regulations and yet those can be navigated with help of good legal advice.

How to tokenize the company’s assets

Asset tokenization process

  • Selecting your assets: The first step is to assess your assets and find out assets fit for tokenization. Figure out the assets that have a good market value. If required, seek help from an auditing firm to identify and mark its value. 
  • Creating the game plan: Next, create a clear plan of execution. It should outline and deliver the value of the tokens and that of the company through the tokenizing platform.
  • Estimation – Estimate the number of tokens, networks, the base of investors, etc to create a blueprint for smooth profitable transactions. 
  • Technical aspect: The next step is to create a platform that would facilitate tokenization and the exchange of tokens. If you’re not an expert at coding, this can be done with the help of Blockchain Development companies. A custom-created platform would work best with the outlined business plan 
  • Legal requirements: Depending on the token the legal regulations of attaching a token to a real-world asset must be met. These are fairly complex and require the help of professional legal advisors. 
  • Publishing a white paper: By publishing a well-written detailed white paper it can outline and provide potential investors with knowledge of the assets, the reason for its creation, and the platform. 
  • Launching a test run – Launching a minimum viable product to a group of initial users allows you to gauge the issues within the existing business model and the platform. With the feedback on hand, these mistakes can be rectified when rolling out the final product.

Finally when you have tokenized assets and the exchange platform the company is ready to present an Equity Token Offering to its potential investors. 

How to present an equity token offering?

Creating the exchange platform or registering to a platform through Blockchain development companies is the first step. The second is to outline the terms of the contract. This includes specifying the availability of tradable assets or tokens and their value. Once the contract is active it enables the company to create a public listing for the potential investors.

Then the Pre-Equity Token Offering phase presents a set number of tokens to high-worth investors before the offering to the public. Upon placing the offering to the public a maximum fund is obtained and all purchased tokens are released to the investors. After the investment process, a shareholders community is created to keep the investors and shareholders up to date about the company’s activities and information. It includes the voting tools, reporting platforms, and payment methods for the token holders.

ETO and tokenizing seem to be promising a revolutionary financial future. Since ETO promises a transparent, accessible, secure, and affordable method of gathering funds companies benefit from shifting to this mode of fundraising.
