Tokenizing Mortgages for Africa | Durham News

from Durham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A new company called Refi2 is shaking up mortgage investing by tokenizing Canadian mortgages, letting Africans invest as little as $1 with instant liquidity—no lock-in, no minimums. They’re aiming to bridge global capital by offering real-time, on-chain transparency and a safe, educational entry point for savers in developing nations. But it’s not without risks: the tokens don’t represent ownership of the mortgage, and some Canadian funds have frozen investor cash before. Tokenizing complex assets like mortgages is far trickier than simpler securities, and this bold experiment is still in its early stages—with cross-border plans unannounced and market performance yet to be proven.
