 <li><em>PT Pelayaran Korindo seeks to spearhead Asia’s Web 3.0 RWA industry by developing an RWA token business model, starting with the tokenization of ship assets</em></li> 
 <li><em>Through the digitization of ship finance—a sizable segment of traditional finance—the RWA initiative is expected to enhance liquidity, diversify investment channels and increase investor choices.</em></li> 
 <li><em>Previously the domain of institutional investors, the RWA tokenization project will also significantly expand access to ship finance opportunities for retail investors.</em></li> 
</ul> 
<p>Klaytn Foundation, established to expand the business of Klaytn, South Korea’s leading global Layer 1 blockchain platform, has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with PT PELAYARAN KORINDO, a multinational conglomerate based in Indonesia, and NEOPIN, a global CeDeFi protocol, to advance Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization. Through their joint expertise in Web3 finance, the foundation and NEOPIN plan to kickstart the nascent Asian RWA tokenization industry by developing a reliable and practical RWA tokenization business model, starting with the tokenization of ship-related assets held by PT Pelayaran Korindo.</p> 
<p>Ship finance typically involves the financing of ship building and purchasing by offering the ships themselves as collateral. According to market research firm Petrofin Research, the global ship finance market was valued at $525 billion last year, including transactions conducted by banks and other traditional financial institutions. In addition, the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region’s share of the global market has rapidly expanded from 40% in the year of its creation to 44% last year.<sup>1 </sup>The tokenization of ship assets is expected to significantly expand the accessibility of ship finance to individual investors as well as institutions, contributing to the diversification of investment assets for web 3-based finance.</p> 
<p>Over the past year, Klaytn Foundation has been expanding RWA-related use cases across the Klaytn ecosystem to promote blockchain mainstream adoption. To this end, they have been working with companies specializing in RWA tokenization to build effective business models from technical, regulatory, and business perspectives. Meanwhile, NEOPIN, the operator of a successful CeDeFi service that merges the trust and stability of decentralized finance (DeFi) with the safety nets of KYC and AML from centralized finance (CeFi), plans to utilize their <a href="http://thenewscrypto.com/tag/defi/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">DeFi </a>platform know-how to digitize, liquidize, and optimize PT Pelayaran Korindo’s tokenized assets.</p> 
<p>Kim Yong-ki, CEO of NEOPIN, said, “NEOPIN plans to introduce attractive RWA products that are more easily accessible and have strong differentiation points. Together with PT Pelayaran Korindo and Klaytn Foundation, which has been continuously growing Klaytn’s blockchain ecosystem, we will lead the global RWA market, starting with ship finance.”</p> 
<p>“The Klaytn blockchain’s fast processing speeds and low fees make it possible to build digital asset trading services that satisfy both investment product issuers and general users,” said Sangmin Seo, Representative Director of Klaytn Foundation. “The foundation has gained practical experience in the service building process, from identifying excellent RWA tokenization projects to launching actual services. Beyond ship financing, we look forward to working with PT Pelayaran Korindo and NEOPIN to realize more global RWA tokenization projects.”</p>
