Takeaways

• Diginex and EVIDENT have formed a strategic alliance to incorporate verifiable ESG data into tokenized assets.
• The partnership aims to boost transparency and trust as the tokenized asset market grows rapidly.
• The move strengthens Diginex’s position in sustainable RegTech following several recent expansions.

Diginex Limited, the sustainable RegTech company listed on NASDAQ, announced on Tuesday a new strategic alliance with EVIDENT Group to integrate ESG data into tokenized assets on EVIDENT’s digital market platform. The move comes at a volatile time for Diginex’s stock, which has fallen sharply over the past week despite strong gains earlier in the year.

The partnership is designed to meet rising demand for transparent and verifiable sustainability reporting in tokenized real-world assets. By incorporating Diginex’s ESG reporting tools directly into EVIDENT’s digital asset infrastructure, both companies aim to offer asset managers and investors clearer insights into the environmental impact and compliance profile of blockchain-based financial products.

Under the agreement, EVIDENT will integrate Diginex’s sustainability modules, including the DiginexESG platform, to enable on-chain verification of impact data for tokenized assets such as green infrastructure, renewable energy projects, and carbon credits. This integration is intended to help issuers demonstrate their sustainability credentials and provide investors with more reliable data.

“Tokenization is transforming how sustainable assets are funded, but without robust ESG data, it’s like navigating without a compass,” said Mark Blick, CEO of Diginex. EVIDENT Group Founder and CEO Dr. Florian M. Spiegl added that issuers and investors are increasingly asking for verifiable data as tokenization accelerates.

Industry forecasts highlight the importance of this development. The global market for tokenized assets is projected to surpass $10 trillion by 2030, while sustainability-linked securities are expected to grow at more than 45% annually through 2028. The alliance aims to position both companies at the forefront of this rapidly evolving segment.

Diginex’s ESG platform already aligns with major frameworks, including GRI, SASB, TCFD, and WEF. The integration will allow asset managers on EVIDENT’s platform to showcase auditable reporting across the full investment lifecycle, supporting stronger governance and investor trust.

The alliance is also part of a broader expansion push for Diginex. Recent announcements include a $1.7 million deal to deliver ESG reporting for more than 1,000 rural banks in Indonesia, a memorandum of understanding to acquire Edge AI firm Kindred OS, and the launch of diginexGHG, an AI-powered tool for automating carbon footprint calculations. The company has also completed an 8-for-1 bonus share distribution and partnered with BlockRidge to integrate ESG metrics into blockchain-based securities.
