SEC Adds Tokenization to 2027 Examination Priorities
The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has included tokenization in its fiscal 2027 examination priorities, alongside quantum computing and extended trading hours. Tokenization was not explicitly mentioned in the agency's 2026 priorities. The SEC also listed tokenization among the high-risk areas it will examine at clearing agencies, alongside default management, securities lending, and operational risks. Cryptocurrencies remain absent as a standalone examination priority for the second consecutive year.
