On October 14, Avalanche stated on October 13 that the Korea Securities Depository (KSD) is building infrastructure connections based on Avalanche for the South Korean securities tokenization market. KSD's technical guidelines confirm that Avalanche is one of several ledger technologies planned to be supported by its platform; Avalanche's post mentions that the plan covers issuance, trading, clearing, settlement, and investor rights, ultimately achieving on-chain settlement. KSD's distributed ledger guidelines (reflecting development as of July 2026) place Avalanche alongside Hyperledger Besu and Hyperledger Fabric, indicating a commitment to support multiple ledger technologies rather than positioning Avalanche as the sole option for South Korea's securities infrastructure. The project has moved from a testing phase to the construction phase of a production platform, with Samsung SDS awarded the contract, aiming to transition the technology testing platform to support real transactions and stable operations, with a target completion date of February 2027. The roadmap released by the South Korean Financial Services Commission in September indicates that revised terms recognizing tokenized securities will take effect on February 4, 2027, with the first phase launching in the same month, initially covering private money market funds and bonds aimed at institutional investors, non-listed stocks held through trust structures, and publicly issued fractional investment securities. The second phase will expand to all publicly issued securities. On-chain payments related to stablecoins are part of the final phase, and the commission remains flexible regarding the timelines for the second and third phases, setting November 11 as the deadline for public consultation on the implementation regulations.
