On March 19, 2026, Metrika co-hosted an invitation-only Tokenization Roundtable at the Harvard Club of New York City with Chartis Research and Risk.net.

The room included senior risk, compliance, and digital asset leaders from G-SIBs, global custodians, market infrastructure providers, asset managers, a credit rating agency, and enterprise technology firms.

Under Chatham House Rule, the conversation was candid.

A few themes stood out:

  • Risk frameworks aren't being reinvented, they're being extended. The consensus: existing enterprise risk frameworks apply. The work is in adding new risk statements, controls, and telemetry for Blockchain infrastructure, not building from scratch.
  • GRC integration is the bottleneck. Digital asset data needs to flow into existing governance, risk, and compliance systems.
  • The room has moved past experimentation. Multiple institutions are in production or actively deploying tokenized products: custody, tokenized deposits, money market funds, equities settlement.
  • Regulatory momentum is real. Recent SEC and OCC guidance is giving institutions clearer guardrails. The question has shifted from "if" to "how."

We're planning future roundtables on stablecoin risk and payments infrastructure, digital asset collateral and margin frameworks, cross-chain interoperability and custody, and regulatory compliance infrastructure.

Thank you to Michael Versace and the Chartis Research team, Risk.net, and all the participants who made this a genuinely productive session.
