Robinhood SVP: Tokenization Driving Overseas U.S. Equity Demand

CryptoFrontier

Robinhood’s senior vice president Johan Kerbrart stated that overseas demand for U.S. equities is growing, driven by three key factors: tokenization, 24-hour trading, and regulatory shifts. According to Kerbrart, these developments are enabling broader investor access to U.S. markets beyond domestic participants. The trading app executive highlighted how technological and regulatory changes are reshaping the landscape for international investors seeking exposure to American equities.
