TCG & Tokenization Encyclopedia

The ZUG DLT Encyclopedia provides clear, authoritative definitions of distributed ledger technology terms and concepts as they apply in Switzerland’s regulatory and institutional context. Entries cover technical concepts (distributed ledgers, consensus mechanisms, smart contracts), legal concepts (DLT securities, Registerwertrechte, insolvency segregation), market concepts (tokenisation, DLT trading facilities), and regulatory concepts (FINMA licensing categories, the DLT Act’s key provisions). The Encyclopedia is intended for practitioners, policymakers, journalists, and researchers working at the intersection of Swiss law, finance, and DLT.
