Goldman Sachs is set to launch three tokenization projects targeting institutional clients, focusing on permissioned networks and private blockchains due to regulatory concerns. 
Goldman Sachs is gearing up to introduce three significant tokenization projects by year-end as part of its strategic expansion into digital assets. 
 While its peers, like <a href="https://crypto.news/real-world-assets-2024-is-the-breakthrough-year-for-tokenization-opinion/" target="_blank" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/real-world-assets-2024-is-the-breakthrough-year-for-tokenization-opinion/" rel="noreferrer noopener">BlackRock</a> and Franklin Templeton, have already entered the world of tokenization, <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/goldman-sachs/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tag/goldman-sachs/">Goldman Sachs</a> is primarily focused on using permissioned networks due to regulatory concerns. 
Mathew McDermott, the banking institution’s global head of digital assets, announced the initiatives, emphasizing their focus on institutional clients. 
“The nice thing is, about an institution of our size, there are differing views [on crypto],” McDermott told Fortune, the <a href="https://fortune.com/crypto/2024/07/10/goldman-sachs-launch-tokenization-bitcoin-etfs-crypto-mcdermott/" target="_blank" rel="">first</a> to report the news. 
Goldman Sachs is increasingly involved in the crypto space from an institutional standpoint. This includes trading cash-settled crypto derivatives for clients and participating in the <a href="https://crypto.news/blackrocks-ibit-etf-holds-18b-in-btc-amid-continuous-inflows/" target="_blank" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/blackrocks-ibit-etf-holds-18b-in-btc-amid-continuous-inflows/" rel="noreferrer noopener">ETF</a> markets. “We’ve continued to see, certainly this year, an uptick and a broadening in the product suite that clients would like to see available,” he said. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="project-details">Project details</h2> 
One of the tokenized projects will target the U.S. fund sector, aiming to streamline asset management through blockchain-based tokenization. Another project will focus on European debt markets, potentially revolutionizing debt issuance processes. 
The third project remains undisclosed but is expected to contribute to Goldman Sachs’ efforts to diversify and innovate within the digital asset space. 
Unlike BlackRock and Franklin Templeton, which favor public blockchain solutions, Goldman Sachs plans to utilize private blockchains due to regulatory considerations. This shows that the 150-year-old bank is cautious but proactive in navigating the evolving regulatory landscape. 
The move comes amidst a broader resurgence in the cryptocurrency market, catalyzed by recent developments in Bitcoin ETFs and growing institutional interest.&nbsp;
