RWA Asset Types

Explore the Classification of Tokenized Real-World Assets.

PicWe makes it possible to invest in tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) across multiple categories. These assets are brought on-chain, giving investors more ways to diversify and earn from the real economy.

A

Fixed-Income

Debt-type assets (e.g., notes, bonds, accounts receivable)

Financial assets with guaranteed redemption, clearly defined yields, inherently liquid and tradable. The debt obligor bears no operating risk and has not experienced maturity extensions.

B

Rights-Based (Equity-Style)

Rights to rental income from assets (e.g., houses, vehicles, equipment, fixed assets)

RWA holders receive rental income. Rental income must be packaged as a whole, not split into different classes/grades of non-fungible income. Only assets with executed leases qualify. Assets not yet leased or vacant must use Model F.

C

Dividend-Type

Profit-sharing from business operations (e.g., revenue sharing of core business, or a single product line)

Enterprises should have operating history, higher growth rate, and sustained annual net profitability in recent years. Can package the entire enterprise or split a single product/business for issuance. Best suited for businesses with higher net yields and shorter payback cycles.

D

Physical-Goods

Tangible assets (e.g., nutraceuticals, long shelf-life foods, alcoholic beverages)

Must support physical delivery. Issuer must hold local sales licenses and have logistics in place. RWA terms must specify regions where physical redemption is guaranteed. Outside those regions, RWAs can still be traded, but physical delivery is not supported.

E

Innovative

Emerging assets (e.g., energy, carbon credits, compute power)

Must already have a compliant off-chain trading venue or business. Issuer must hold ownership of the asset, not just leasehold rights.

F

Fund-Type

Fund-style packaging (e.g., assets held by investment firms or family offices; valuable physical assets)

Package assets into a fund based on valuation. Issuer may offer ownership or income rights. Ownership uses an initial base period to determine NAV and is updated periodically; income rights pay out based on fund returns.

These classifications ensure that $WEUSD holders can access a wide range of tokenized investment opportunities, from safe financial assets to innovative new markets.
