Definition ∞ Investment fractionalization involves dividing ownership of high-value assets into smaller, more affordable units. This practice lowers the barrier to entry for investors, allowing wider participation in previously exclusive markets. Digital assets, particularly through tokenization, readily enable this division of ownership. It democratizes access to diverse investment opportunities.
Context ∞ Investment fractionalization is a growing trend in digital assets, applying to real estate, art, and private equity via tokenization. A key discussion revolves around the regulatory implications of offering fractionalized securities to a broader investor base. Future developments will likely see more traditional assets being tokenized and offered in fractional units, increasing market accessibility.
