With “TokenAise”, a Gen-AI powered chatbot created in partnership with AI Singapore, IMAS aims to democratise access to credible information and deepen understanding of distributed ledger technology (DLT) and tokenisation across the investment community. IMAS leverages collaboration with the asset management community and initiatives launched by MAS such as Project Guardian to further enhance learning and industry alignment. By bringing together fintech innovators, regulators, asset owners, and asset managers, these engagements not only foster innovation but also support IMAS’ mission to progressively upskill the industry, ensuring that education is reinforced by real-world collaboration and alignment across the investment ecosystem. Together, these initiatives reflect IMAS’ long-term vision to progressively close the education gap through structured learning modules, widen access through digital tools, and build a more informed, capable, and future-ready investment community.
