PANews reported on August 16th that according to Cointelegraph, S&P Dow Jones Indices is in discussions with major exchanges, custodians, and decentralized finance protocols to launch tokenized versions of its benchmark index products. Earlier this year, the company partnered with Centrifuge, authorizing it to tokenize the S&P 500 Index. According to Stephanie Rowton, a director at S&P Dow Jones Indices, the move aims to establish a robust infrastructure to support tokenized index trading. The plan primarily considers factors such as transparency, security, and regulatory compliance, and may expand to tokenizing other flagship indices, such as the Dow Jones Industrial Average.
