AI-assisted source synthesis · not an independent investigation.
In November 2026, Morgan Stanley became one of the earlier banks to use the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC)’s new tokenized infrastructure and tokenized popular U.S. stocks. The latest reports point out that the ability to transfer equity assets faster on-chain does not mean that companies can immediately convert them into bank deposits, pay suppliers, or obtain financing. Their actual value still depends on buyers, redemption mechanisms, market liquidity, and banking payment rails. If companies expect 24/7 redemption, banks will also need to provide the corresponding funding, credit capacity, and market access, while managing the new liquidity demands that result.
